I've been watching videos on sharpening clippers - and I was unimpressed... until I found your channel - the amount of information and technique in this video is great - thank you! I'll check out your others!
I did't know that changing the pressure can change the hollow ground....! Thanks for the knowledge
Thank you. And I want to tell you, I have watched this particular video over and over and I am still on it. Thank you, I am from Ghana, West Africa. I am grateful to your team . Keep it up .
Thank you so much
Very informative for professional clippers sharpeners or those who aspire to be, not so much for the residential or home body looking to sharpen their blades
Great tips on the wide blades, never could get them to cut on the ends. Will give this a shot!
Thank you Brandon! Very nice and helpful videos!
Thank you Brandon, hey nice hat.
Thanks Ward! Glad you enjoyed the video.
Thanks a lot. I've learned many things from your chanel.
Glad to help!
Thanks Brandon! Really good job and details on blade Sharpening technique.
Thank you Robert!
Hello friend
Which taper disc?
That sharper is amazing where are they available ? Your videos are very informative
Hello Mr. Brandon, so far so good on sharpening the wahl adjustable blades. The only troublesome blades are the wahl non adjustable balding with a comb that has very small teeth. Kindly advise me on the pressure to apply and the finishing part on the plate? Your techniques really work. Thank you.
Hi! The techniques should be the same as the adjustable. One thing to take into consideration with a balding blade specifically and other very small fine edged combs is that the tips can get sharp, which will drag against the hair. These need to be softened after sharpening. We typically use either a piece of fine abrasive on the table or a flat hone.
ruclips.net/video/RMJV7LQYkkI/видео.html this video should show us softening the tips!
Adjustable Blades 0:12
Trimmer Blades 9:28
Wide, Blocking, & T-Blades 41:40
When you de-burr with a wire brush, Do you just drag on the burr side, or both sides?
If one side only, should you recheck, sharpen a bit again?
If both sides, can it dull the sharp edge a bit?
Thanks, sir!
For the arco blades, using a DMT diamond plate to knock the burr back instead of kissing the plate, would you recommend the red (600 grit)?
Hi Scott! Yes the 600 is fine. You don't want to put extra pressure from the weight of the hand. Its job is to help break the burr, not remove metal from the surface that we just created.
What do you do with stainless steel blades, anti-magnetic, or can you not sharpen them?
Hi Brandon, This One video earned you my subscription, Great work !! I have two questions, What kind of Machine does OSTER use in their factory ?? and is the machine you were using, its brand and does it use the applied grit method? Thank you Brother.
Hey! Great vid! Any tips on sharpening or when newly sharpened blades that dry out quickly? I have to continually add oil after 2-3 mins of use. Thanks!
Hi Harlem! It sounds like the blade needs to be cleaned out! Oftentimes the gunk in the blade can just become more sticky when you add more oil and create more of an issue than solve anything. Try cleaning the blade with Andis Cool Care or rubbing alcohol and then oil. That should last you longer!
@@TheEdgePro thank you!!!!
Hello edge pro. do you have a video illustration for rounding sharp tip blades after sharpening
Hi Megarider. I do not believe we have a video illustrating this but we simply rock the tips back and forth on a 600 grit or 30 micron (very fine) sandpaper.
@@TheEdgePro Can you elaborate? Are you saying you "ramp" the blades? Also, can you use a fine DMT plate? Also also, is this rocking done on both comb blade and cutter?
@@FullDottle Can you give us a time stamp of where in the video you are referring to so we can help answer your question as quickly as possible?

Please I want to know how the surface of the disc for sharpening blades is hollowed out on the lathe?
If the disc hollows the blade then the disc is CONVEX. The opposite of hollow. and this guy is saying the disc is convex in the middle only!!!
Average home guy can’t buy big expensive power stone
I love your teachings. I wish to do it in my country. Please can we do business?
Have you considered making a handle for your magnets.. i have sime of those computer rare earth magnets as well but they are so powerful im always pinching myself lol trying to disconnect them
Why not just use a wet stone since there is very little play on the metal removal on trimmer blades?
Hi Jason! The biggest issue with using a flat surface to create two matching flat surfaces is the material doesn't remove evenly and typically comes off faster on the edges than the core, which will make the two mismatch. The specialty wheels that we use are designed to create a hollow grind to create proper seating for the two pieces of the blade.
I was given an Andis clipper that the blades need sharpening, where are you at, and can I send them to you so you can sharpen them for me.
I thank you before hand and look forward to hearing from you Carlos.
Ok Edge Pro, I am asking, I would like to find out, is the hone ( the disk ) a complete metal ? The reason why I'm asking this question is because I want to form or create a Clipper blade sharpening machine.
Can i sharpen on a flat surface like whetstone/sandpaper?
From this and other videos, if adjustable clippers. Flat honing for comb only is ok,
What gtitt is your turning blade and whar rpm are you running
What are the machines I would need for sharpening blades

Hey guys. I just purchased the little red hone, but haven't owned a DVD player in 5 years. Do you have the DVD or updated content lessons available online?
Hi Scott! Send us an email at service@theedgepro.com and we can help you out with this!
Can this disc sharpen cast iron blades?
The machines are designed to work with aluminum oxide grits to sharpen carbon steel and stainless steel blades. What type of blade do you have exactly?
Cast iron blades
Aluminium disc

Hi
i sharp my blade, but why dose it burn my face after trimming?
which magnet is that? I am trying to sharpen 2 hole wahl mc2 clippers
This is the magnet we use for most of our sharpening: www.theedgepro.com/products/small-magnet-r
Can medical aluminum oxide be used to sharpen the blade of a razor?
Great video! In my design of my handheld chairside blade sharpener I purposely refused ANY blade edge training. It has been my experience that traditional thought and training get in the way of innovation.
Hello
Hi!
How do you get a hollow grind on what looks like a flat disc?
Watch this video and it will explain it further: ruclips.net/video/X8oBebeKrVQ/видео.html
Hello Brandon can you tell me what taper angle you resurface your plates
Hi Arthur, We give the 14" and 16" wheels a 1/2 degree taper. Thanks!
@@TheEdgePro I have 10" Aluminium weel, and I want to make it hollow ground on the lathe ... can you tell me if is ok 1/2 degree taper on 10" thx
Thanks so much man I've red about a 0.014 taper and 0.026 taper don't even know what that means
this 0.014 and 0.026 are....? Degrees? or what mesasurement unit?
If you know then please tell me sir
JMHO…Grinding on a dry wheel just rubs me wrong. Sparks means heat. I’m sure you know what you’re doing but it’s a waterwheel always for me.
nope, can not get this T-10 to cut on the ends....GRRR I'll try again with even more pressure :o)
What video shows burr removal
Burr removal is not something we concentrate on due to most domestically made commercial blades having a high quality alloy and rockwell hardness allowing the burr to flake off as we sharpen. this makes unnecessary to spend extra effort deburring. However, there are certain blades that we do inspect for burrs, one of which is the Wahl 5 in 1 cutter and Lister and Premier cutters. You can watch the video about sharpening the 5 in 1 blades that show some techniques on deburring. Most deburring has to do with metal fatigue flipping the burr back and forth until it falls away. This can be done with a wire or nylon brush.
I just can't believe the disc is convex only in the middle. so that if you hold the piece longer there it hollows the piece. does not make any sense.
Believe it or not, hollow ground plates are used by professional sharpeners everywhere and are necessary to correctly sharpen a blade. In-person training is the best option for you if you do not understand how it all works!
@@TheEdgePro Believe it or not, Conical or (tapered) ground plates are used by professional sharpeners everywhere and are necessary to correctly sharpen a blade. In-person training is the best option for you if you do not understand how it all works!
