- This is a short video to explain how to effectively sharpen your dressmaking scissors and pinking shears.
Probably like many of you, I have a few pairs of pinking shears, every time mine dull, I replace with a new pair until I decided to find a fix on my fourth pair.
I have a pair of pinking shears that belonged to my grandmother, then my mother, but the charity shop who sharpen knives, scissors, saws etc locally, told me it's not possible to sharpen them (they're not totally blunt). Now I can renovate them myself, thank you so much! :)
How did I not know these simple was to sharpen my sewing scissors!! I have been sewing for 60 years!
Thank you so much for this video. I also have pinking shears that I almost disposed of. Going to try this now!
This is great. I was eyeing a second hand pair of pinking shears online, but was afraid it was dull. Now I know I can sharpen it myself. 😃
Good tip with the aluminium foil for sharpening scissors. As I've just spent 4 hours sharpening things for people at a repair cafe that's a great tip I'll be passing on - thank you!
Brilliant stuff Jon
Never seen the tin foil sharpening method - excellent - thank you so much!!
You are so welcome! It worked brilliantly for me. Rescued three pairs of very expensive pinking shears. 💪🏽🙌🏽
Like X 1000 !! Just brilliant. Thank you so much. Will be sharing with EVERYONE.
Great help thank you, I love all your tips as I’ve recently been given an overlocker and your videos demystified it for me, many thanks, Teresa 😃
Brilliant news, well done!
Thank you for sharing this, I have been wondering how to sharpen my pinking shears, very helpful thanks. 👍
Thank you! I thought I would have to buy new scissors - what a great maintenance video!
Fab video, going to try sharpening my really blunt scissors now x
Thank you. The fine sand paper worked for my kitchen scissors.
Wonderful info and good presentation.👍👍
Thank you, that works beautifully.
Thanks very much! The nail files/emery boards is a great idea for recycling my used files/boards. Love your scissor cozies (cases) as well!
Thank you 😊
Great video thanks
Didnt work for me. Now they are worse than before. What am I doing wrong?
I’m not sure, I often use foil. I used to keep replacing my oinking shears, but they’re all like new. I honestly don’t know what else to suggest
@@AbisDen thank you. I must be doing filing incorrectly.
Very helpful thankyou so much for sharing this video, I have my grandmother's pinking shears, so now I can get them back into shape hopefully x
Thank you!!!!
Is there a way to true scissors? Like what I mean is how do I keep my scissors straight?
It's weird but like if I don't want to warp my scissors. Basically I was just wondering what habits I should be looking for, just so I can learn for the future.
All your videos are helpful.
Good information. the item you had at the end, can you get one for a left handed Pr of scissors?
Wonderful...I must try this foil trick....I used to pretend cutting the neck of s glass bottle....it also worked
Very helpful. THANK YOU 🙏🏽
Thank you so much. This is awesome
Great tips, as always. x
Glad you like them! x
Fantastic Abi. Thank you
Thank you Zanzibar
Brilliant video thanks
Thanks Abi, I didn’t know I could sharpen my pinking shears, and was ready to replace them!! You’ve saved me the cost!
Thank you for your feedback and yay! 😊💪🏼✂️I have 4 pairs for that reason, a few years ago I tried it out when playing with the children and I couldn’t believe my luck 🌷I’m glad to have helped
Indeed, excellent advice
It would save you a little bit of time to have a local sharpener who understands how to sharpen those correctly with the proper tools and experience it will only take about 2 minutes to get them back to the way they originally were when you bought them
I use a tormek, but most people don’t have those lying around. Taking off screws for some scissors can be fiddly, and getting the correct angle can be troublesome, this is a great technique that works well and ample for those people cutting fabric only,
Why the comments look like bots
Will be getting the tinfoil out on my scissors thanks 😊
Hello, thank you for this Wonderful Tip with foil 😁.💕
The Video is great thanks now I've got lots of scissors to sharpen
Thanks ... will be trying this on some pinking shears ....
Thank you! Just what I needed!
Awesome and so helpful... thank you

Hello, love your scissor pouches 😁 Erica x
Thanks
You’re welcome 🌷💕😊
Cutting aluminum foil or sand paper doesn't sharpen scissors, but it will clean them.
Don’t cut sandpaper! It’s paper. It’ll dull your scissors. Foil is metal. Metal sharpens metal
@@AbisDen Most sandpaper is neither sand nor paper. I prefer a stone.
Whichever metal is harder will change the other metal, sharpening rods and honers are hardened steel and so they change the scissors. Sharpening changes the surface of the metal by grinding or forcing the metal into a new position. Cutting foil is the river smoothing stone, or shaving with a credit card.
Oops and I just bought a tools, knives and scissors sharpening machine at Lidls 🙄
keep them, they will actually sharpen scissors
