Exactly what I was looking for. Images of angles, terms, and no horrendous music. Thank you fine sir.
now, all he has to do is stop the incessant babbling
So turn ur volume off and skip being a rude ass. He's very helpful for those actually learning this skill.
Not only a complete sharpening video but a funny story to end up with. Thank you. Will try your instructions.
Thank you so much! Wonderfully detailed tutorial, already fixed 3 pairs. And thank you for the attention to the music. No elevator music over here, fantastic.
Thanks a million !! This is an enormous help. Clearly explained & demonstrated. Cheers & thanks again from Australia ! 🏆👏🎯
Good stuff! If you're having trouble monitoring your progress, color the bevel with a large black or blue Sharpie marker. As you sharpen the bevel you'll be able to clearly see where you need to continue. Try it; it really works.
I second this. The rusty was helpful, but the edge was a little hard to see.
Thank You!!!
This is just what I needed to see.
I saw another one that took apart the scissors, passed a file over the back of each blade a couple of times to “remove the burrs” and said “done”
Didn’t seem to make sense to me so glad I found this!
Thanks again.
That story about the barber had me laughing out loud. I think I had that barber! So funny!!! Thank you for your video, but especially the time and care you took to make sure we could see and understand (quite lacking in way too many how to's out there).
This video popped up out of the blue and was really worthwhile!
Thank you! ☺️👍✌️🇬🇧
THANK YOU FOR SHOWING HOW YOU SHARPEN SISSORS.
My Dad sharpened about every tool you can imagine, professionally, surgical stuff, too, (back before it was throw-away). He raised me in a machine shop, & I was fluent with most of his equipment by the time I was 10 years old. The principle tools, he used, to sharpen sissors were a flat bastard file and a corregating flat file.. (which they no longer make! ) If you have one, hang on to it. You can't buy them anymore!!! What you were calling DRAW-FILING is FORWARD-FILING. Draw filing is done side-stroke. He taught me you have to have a curve in your blade, so it will shear, like a X. If you can close your sissors and hold them up and peer thru between the blades and there's a bowed holiday between them but they are together at the screw and at the top, they will shear. If its flat, the edges can be razor sharp and they won't cut hot butter. When you store sissors, open them where the tips are at least an inch apart, so the spring tension of the blades aren't wearing down over time. It is slso best if you will store them, hanging from hooks with the tips open.
Dull sissors WILL cut paper. Your true test is toilet paper. Cloth sissors and pinking shears have to evenly cut thin cloth as well as thick cloth, burlap & naugahide. Dad taught me never to fool with the inside surface of the blades unless they were rusty. He said, "Son, it's not how MUCH you take off, its how LITTLE you take off!" I had a sharpening business for a while, till I realized the government was eating up the main amount I was making, so I folded my side business and kept doing my regular job. I haven't charged for my services for close to 40 years, but I still sharpen for my family and close friends. Just to keep these old hands nimble. Make a re-curver and guard it with your life, or some A-hole will steal it like they did mine!
Right On! 🙌 I loved reading your comment here! Great stuff and great wisdom. Thanks for writing and watching! Hope your day is awesome!! 👏 Good tips!
Pretty comprehensive. I liked your presentation of "Joe the barber". Thanks.
Very very good. I am in S.Paulo, Brasil tuned on in the video and this is exactly what i was looking for, since a long long time. Thank you Jon very much.
Great video, sir. I learned some things. I build a few fixed blade knives when I have time. Mostly out of tool steel. I wanted to compliment you on how well organized your shop is. Many hundreds of items with labels. Very nice.
THANK YOU. I have struggled with keeping shears sharp forever. This was very simple and clear.
Thanks a lot Sir, I am Engr. Aslam from Pakistan. I found of tools & have a small room in my house called as workshop. I do a lot of technical work at home but did not have a concept of sharpening scissors. You have really given an excellent and useful presentation in this regard.
Is "Engr." your name or your title?
Thank you so much!! This is so very helpful. I am a pet groomer and don't always have time to wait on my sharpening guy to sharpen my scissors. Now I can do it myself :)
Right On! ✨👍 So great to hear that this helped you out.
Right! It doesn’t take too long to have nice sharp scissors ready for action. Thanks for your comment Jacquie ✨ ✂️ 🐩
Thanks for the video Jon, you put tears in my eyes from laughing at the barber story, good ending to a great video.
Thank you for teaching about two grind angles. I was wondering why my sharpening didn't work. After watching this I ground the 10-degree angle and it worked.
Wonderful, seems like Joe the Barber lived in the moment, and you told the story (whistling along and snipping ) beautifully along with How to sharpen scissors.
Thanks for the video, I never had any luck sharpening my scissors, gonna give it another try in a bit. I will have to say I was a bit surprised you used your diamond block without any fluid, I always thought that was a big no-no.
Thank you much bro..i learned how to sharpen scissors 2 stroke of grinding and wiggle revit🙏🙏🙏👍👍👍👏👏👏❤
Thanks - I wanted to see the tighten riveted scissors fix. Excellent
Wow ..used my glass diamond nail file ..didn't have a stone or clamp ..but it worked anyways ..thanks.
GOOD MORNING I WATCH YOUR PROGRAM VERY GOOD IT'S A GOOD LESSON! 🎉THANKS
I got exact result by way of your method. Thanks so much….
Thanks, I HAVE SCISSORS everywhere for certain jobs and I LIKE TO KEEP THEM SHARP!
Very clear explanation and demonstration. Thankyou.
Very useful Jon. Thanks. Love the story about Joe the Barber. Mine use to cut my ear too, but without doing any theatrics!!!
Ha! Thanks 😄
Thanks for the tutorial AND the story!
😊 yes I want to sharpen and bring back to life my mom's and grandma's old fabric scissors
Popped in here from Scoutcrafter's video. Good tips and instructions!
Thank you for teaching us how to sharp the scissors. Now I know what tools should I buy :)
Right On! 🙌 Thanks for watching and your nice comment!
I sharpened my old scissors by cutting some 600 grit wet and dry sandpaper.
I used the old scissors because I thought cutting the sandpaper would ruin them, but after cutting a couple of pieces 8 inches long the scissors were real sharp like new again. 👍
Now I learned how to sharpen scissors thank you bro GOD bless you & your family circle
Right On! 🙌✨ Sharp scissors for life! ✂️
Paper we can cut with unsharped scissors too, the really prove is the textil cutting.
Thanks for the tutorial. For those with no tools maybe use the back of a leather belt on a flat surface as a strop?
I had a couple of those old silver with black handled scissors from a yard sale and in a pinch used crumpled small pieces of aluminum foil to rub the light spots of rust and glue off the blades. It was perfect for getting the rust off close to the pivot point too. I also rubbed the aluminum foil tiny crumpled wad diagonally off the blade edge. Seemed to work and the scissors cut well.
I then took a black paint pen bought from Agway that my son uses on restoring bicycles and filled in the missing black paint on the handles. While it doesn't go on super smooth it did fill in the silver parts just fine.
The best sharpening video!
Great tutorial Bud!! Who don't remember the ol' air snip eh, great story!! I received the stickers and bag today!! The bag is awesome and even more impressive in person!! Thanks for everything Bud!!☺
Right On Everett! 👍 Glad to hear that you got the bag and sticker! Yeah the old air snip and some heavy whistling 😗💨 Damn kid was squirming around! Wouldn’t sit still!!
Thanx for a terrific brief on sharpening Scissors, I do have a couple of comments to add, you can take them for whatever they're worth. First of all, and probably most important, a common problem is that the blades will not close at the tip after all of this diamond honing, and of course they will not cut to the end of the blade. The remedy here is to inspect the exact Bumper spot between the two handles, then go to work on it with file or Dremel, bearing mind, of course, that the distance from the pivot to the blade end, depending on the scissor size you're working with will be several times greater than the distance from the "bumper" to the pivot, so if you are trying to overlap 1/32 inch or so, you'll need to whack probably at least 1/8 or so from the shiny spot on the handle bumper. If you have a little spot of Prussian Blue or stiff axle grease, this will help. Second, in your video, you clearly show the business face of the hone going "AWAY" from the edge. Naughty, naughty, the preferred stroke direction should be "INTO" the blade. Third, I'm not a spokesperson or salesman for any company, however a couple of comments here: First the Gingher 10 inch shears of 19 years or so ago were absolutely the finest shears ever made, mainly because of the unique pivot bushing which actually tightens as the scissors close, relaxing when the scissors open. All this came to an end when Gingher was bought out by Fiskars. The upshot of all this is that the world's best scissors now are the "KAI" brand from Japan (direct purchase and they ain,t cheap!)). The workmanship, hardened steel, and unique adjustable pivot bolt are in a class by themselves, be it serrated or straight edge.
INTERESTING :)

Thanks for your help!
Dull as baloney is the best phrase I just learned 😂
Thank you for a 👍 great video. Cape Town
I was 7 when heard mother saying that her scissors won't cut. I sharpened them by attempting to cut a needle as passing it along the length of the blades. Mother was astounded as the pair were very sharp then. She asked me where I learned that trick. I said from a kids magazine
😊😊
Thank you son
Very helpful. Thanks. And.......... "A man with a lathe and a milling machine can make ANTTHING!" I'm envious.
Right On Mike! 🙌✨ Happy New Year!
I am so gonna try this. Thanks
My Dad used to keep my Mom’s scissors sharp, especially her dress-making shears as Mom made a lot of our clothing when we were young. Mom would threaten great punishment if we were to use her scissors for cutting paper or cardboard, as the contaminants in the paper quickly dulled the blades. I love to sharpen old tin snips, aviation snips, hedge trimmers, household scissors, etc., and turn a neglected tool back into a top-notch user. One thing I do is put a drop of light household oil on the pivot screw to reduce wear in the joint and extend the life of the instrument.
Thanks for posting!
I use a newer product to lubricate these days, liquid teflon. It does not attract dirt and debris the way oil does.
This is very helpful. Unfortunately, not all of us have a shop and a vice. It would have been really nice to see options for us without a vice, or maybe even using sandpaper if on a lower budget. Thank you for showing a few different scissors. I appreciate you.
Vises that clamp onto a wood table edge are common and inexpensive. $2 at yard sales, I've found. If your table is nice, protect it with cardboard. No need for a shop, as this work does not create much of any mess.
In today's world we have Amazon 😊
Thanks for the clear and concise info
Right on Jon👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Helpful tutorial. I tried several times but couldn't succeed. This is due to no angle determination and 2nd, wrong selection of file or stone. Years before I left trying. Now I shall try once again. I'm confident to become successful. Thank a from Bangladesh.
Thank You! What a great video!
You are so professional
Thank you. Just what I wanted to know.

Nice job on the scissors, sharp is the best. I think I use scissors everyday also, wow. Time to go sharpen up, love the diamond stones.
Right On Randy! 👍 Thanks! Right, when I thought about it, I use scissors everyday. I like how those Diamond stones stay nice and flat. Always ready for work.
@@RightOnJonCrane Right ON Jon.
Hello Jon. Great, informative video. Love the bag you made for Scoutcrafter, so I came over here to subscribe. 😃👍🏼
Right On David! 👍 Scout Crafter is a great guy. Glad you came over to check out what I’m up to in the shop! Thanks.
Super helpful thanks
thumbs up..thanks a lot to your great tutorial..video...Happy New Year..
Right On! 👍 Happy new Year! Thanks for watching. 😃
Jon, you showed how to get a pair of scissors HALF sharp, now if you skip the barber shop theatrics and go on to one or two more final steps you will find that your scissors will be sharp enough to excise an entire ear from a young kid's flinching head in one fell swoop! 😲I use some small ceramic finishing stones but you can simply glue a couple ultra-fine grits of wet-r-dry finishing sandpaper to a piece of thin bar stock and, in a few additional strokes, you will find that there will be such a scary sharp edge to your scissors that, with a bit of practice, you will be able to start a cut in your paper and as the scissors get a "bite", you can slide the cutting tool right across the entire sheet of paper without doing the snip-snip technique. 800 grit on one side and a thousand grit on the other would be sufficient to finish that set of cutting blades off to another level of cutting something more sensible than shredding a sheet of paper. [I have been sharpening edged tools and other pieces of "equipment" for 60 odd years and have not yet figured out the sense in cutting paper into little strips].
Right On! 🙌 Thanks! Those are some good tips. I do have a nice selection of hard Arkansas stones from Pike / Norton. I use them in my machine shop for sharpening end mills and cutting tools. It sure is nice to have sharp scissors! Unless they are cutting your ear at the barber! 💈 Now that barber had some theatrics! 😄
What if you don’t have that table to work on?
Such a big experience
My method is, throw them out and buy a new pair, now I wish I had them 😩 Thank you John, I have my husbands old butcher stone, maybe that would work !! I’ll give this a try . ✅
Thanx for sharing sir👏
I use a Bastard File and DRAW back and forth keeping the same angle. Your forward strokes can change the angle as the file moves forward.
Thanks for another fantastic tutorial. I have a pair of 7N Wiss tailor’s shears. Is the sharpening process the same?
Well done, you are awesome you are funny too
Thanks a lot, great help.
so informative. thanks a lot 👍👍👍🍻
Nice job.
Great Demo, thanks!
Right On! 🙌☘️✨
Nice vedeo informative appreciate you
Never trust a whistling barber. Great tutorial, and great story. Thanks.
very nice 👍 thanks for sharing
Thanks man.
Hello,
Very interesting information. I am planning trying this on my sewing scissors. I was wondering if you know about sharping a bread knife or serrated knives. Thank you for the great video
Needed to see this ...thanks...stay safe...👍
Right On Chuck! 👍 Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you very much.
Thanku. Very useful information.
Right On! 👍✨ Thanks for watching!
My overly pricey Fiskars fell apart long before they dulled....i will try this method on my other pairs, the cheap knife sharpener w scissor opening i currently use doesn't keep them honed beyond a single use.
