3. Hold one scissor blade firmly by its handle in your right hand and place the flat face of the
blade against the guide surface as shown in Figure 16. Next, slide the blade to the right to
bring it into full contact with the diamond coated pad. (Note: The loose blade, that is not
being sharpened, should hang below the blade being sharpened. If it is located above
the blade being sharpened, this is most probably a left handed scissors and should be
sharpened accordingly to instructions for left handed scissors.)
4. Holding the inside flat face of the blade constantly in intimate contact with the Guide
Surface while maintaining the edge in solid contact with the diamond abrasive pad, move
the scissor blade forward and backward in a sawing-like motion 4 or 5 times (See Figure
16). Stop and check to determine if a burr has formed on the flat face along the entire
length of the edge.
5. If a burr is detected along the entire edge, proceed to Step 6. If no burr has developed
continue to sharpen the edge with the back and forth motion until a burr is present.
6. When a burr has been created along the entire length of the first blade, remove the scissor
and open and close the blades fully five (5) or more times to cut off the burr. Wipe the
blades off with a paper or cloth towel.
7. Then repeat Steps 3 thru 6 with the second scissors blade.
8. Finish by opening and closing the scissors 5 to 10 times rapidly to cut off any residual
burrs along both blades. Wipe the blades off with a paper or cloth towel.
9. Test the blades for sharpness using a thin sheet of paper. If you need to further improve
sharpness, repeat the Steps 3 thru 8. Your scissors should cut paper very easily when
properly sharpened. If your scissors have an adjustment screw make certain it is tightened
until blade faces contact properly when opened and closed (See "Suggestions", Item 11).
After many resharpenings if the above procedure fails to give a good edge, it may be necessary
to RE-ANGLE THE EDGE as described below:
B. RE-ANGlING ThE EDGE OF RIGhT-hANDED ScISSORS
This should be necessary only infrequently, when the procedure of Section A does not sharpen
well. When this is needed, proceed as follows for RIGHT- HANDED scissors:
1. Hold the sharpener with your left hand with the barrel to the right.
2. Make certain the Coarse grit diamond pad is rotated into the proper position. The visible
thumb wheel label should read "Stage 1 Coarse".
3. Follow Step 3 thru 8 of Section A above. Because more metal must be removed from the
edge facet during the re-angling, many strokes may be needed to create the burr.
4. Then rotate the barrel to the Fine grit (Stage 2, Fine) position and repeat Steps 2 thru 9 of
Section A.
c. PROcEDURE FOR ShARPENING lEFT-hANDED ScISSORS
The procedure for LEFT-HANDED Scissors is the same as for standard right handed scissors,
(see Sections A and B, above) except:
• Hold the sharpener handle with your right hand, and have the scissor sharpener oriented
with the Sharpening Barrel on the left.
• After placing the blade flat against the Guide Surface, slide the blade to the left – to ensure
contact with the abrasive pad.
