Ok, the pen trick did the job. I didn't sharpen all the way to the edge. Not enough angle. With the marker I can see what I'm doing. Thanks.
Awesome
Excellent video thanks Very informative Had to do the same thing to a pair of Shears last week Thanks again for my training Back at it till I have to go back to real work
Great to hear!
Why didn't you check the set and add a little to the tip if the ride was weak?
I normally don't check the set if I know I'm not going to bend or hammer the shears and I know I'm not going to try to bend the shears if the customer is not there to ask permission. Working the ride on a flat stone will tell me pretty much what the set problem is.
@@BonikaShears couldn't you have avoided shortening the shear if you'd checked that?
I sharpen lots of OG shears. They are easy,45 degrees and I have never had any alignment issues with this brand. I figured they were not sharp after they did not cut the dry tissue well. Thanks, that sharpener needs to go back to school!
Glad you saw the problem. Could you guess the screw was backwards?
@@BonikaShears I really did not look to closely at the screw.
I sharpened my home chineese shears with lighter and ceramic plate, yet the tip was not cutting, while watching u I also decided to bend just a bit of the tip with pliers and oh boy it works perfect now. it is not needed to be a sharpener or a pro. you guys just have to catch the right angle.
Sounds like you have instinctive talent.
Do you know how to fix it if your whole blade is bent in the middle?
Great video
Glad you enjoyed it
I dropped my shears and now the tip goes over the other what do I do? I can’t replace them I literally have no money and my teacher said I can’t continue the program without the sizzors and I can only use the ones purchased through the school so I need to fix them
You will either need to replace the bumper (Do they clack when they close?) or you will need to bend the handle. I’ll try to shoot a short video on this today.
I tend to re-flatten my stone(s) a lot. However, since the inside face of the blades are always hollow ground, when I do the ride line, it always seems to remove metal on the spine edge as well. What am I doing wrong?
YES! The shears must be taken apart and the pressure placed over the pivot! If metal comes off the back you are creating a relaxed rideline and no amount of flattening your stone will fix it. After a few sharpenings these shears will not cut.
@@BonikaShears
Ok, thanks. I do take them apart and work from the pivot. I’m thinking about one pair that was adjusted way too tight and the “J” area seemed to be worn unevenly to where it wouldn’t lay flat on the stone.
Being careful to relieve some pressure on the spine side, the ride line wouldn’t come even and ended up not making it to the tip.
I’m wondering if it was dropped, bent, and wouldn’t cut till it was over-tightened.
Looks like the screw was in backwards
You got it.
Found the issue, Bonnie! They’re cheap $39 shears that shouldn’t even be worked on that extensively- I charge for a sharpening almost the same as just buying a new pair through their website!
Amazing that they will spend more for sharpening than getting the shears.
They're 120 dollars. Where did you see them for 39?
Where I come from that tool she has in her hand are called "SCISSORS" not GARDEN SHEARS-
Nothing more frustrating than watching a video that does not relate to the title.
Rec: Back to Basics- Learn the name of your tools first....
In the USA all professional stylists are taught to call their hair cutting scissors “shears.” In other countries this may not be true. This is why our company is called Bonika Shears not Bonika Scissors because we sell tools that cut hair, not paper. I am aware in Britain and Australia shears are for sheep, hedges and goats. If I refer to a hairstylist tools as scissors here in the USA or Canada it implies she or he is using cheap scissors used for cutting paper not hair. They will be insulted. However, many of my videos and even my book on Amazon call them hair cutting scissors since so much of the world uses that term.
Back to basics : Learning to comprehend what you're reading..... The manufacturer is Olivia Garden, and the tool are referred to as shears.
