This little tool has worked wonders on sharpening my scissors. I didn't think this would be possible , especially on my very old scissors. I was very much surprised and pleased.. They are better than new! I have spent so much on scissors in the past I figured I would give this a try. Much to my surprise, I am SURPRISED! and for the price it is well worth the investment.

works like a charm

I’ve been a fan of these guys’ knife sharpeners for a while for idiot-proof touch-up sharpening. The scissor ones also definitely helped restore a couple pairs we were about to throw out. But be aware it’s a little more of a freehand operation than the knife version—up to you to maintain the proper angle as you use. But with a little practice, does the job.

I can't get over how easy and effective this little device is! I hunted for a long time to find something that actually worked to sharpen scissors...everything from folded aluminum foil to the little angled cutting sharpeners. NOTHING sharpened the scissors and I was resigned to just constantly throwing out the scissors when they became dull and buying new. I'm so happy I did one more search and found these bad boys. A couple of quick swipes and my scissors are so sharp I don't even need to close them to cut paper! My faith in humanity has been restored...for now....

Does not work at all. Followed directions exactly but saw no improvement in my scissors cutting ability. Would not recommend.

I had, apparently, very blunt scissors, because it took many passes to get them sharpened… somewhat. The instructions and diagram are great. However in my case it didn’t work out exactly as described. The first time I tried sharpening a small kitchen-utility pair of scissors, it didn’t do much. I repeated with many more strokes, and made a little progress. The scissors were used several times to cut through a large dish sponge that had sand-paper-like layers on top and bottom. I think this material really dulled my scissors considerably. Also, I think the paper cutting test is a good suggestion, but in my case not the perfect test. When I tried paper - it cut through smoothly like butter, however when I attempted to cut thin plastic (such as plastic disposable tablecloth) it failed miserably. The plastic just fold between the blades and nothing happens. Also with plastic wrapping of food packaging, which is a main object of cutting with these particular scissors, the sharpened scissors performed a little better than the thin plastic tablecloth, but it also struggled to do the task. It depended on the thickness of the bag. Too thin or too thick - it didn’t work. Somewhere in between, it did. I went through another session of sharpening today and now it seems to be much better. But I certainly had to go through many more strokes than suggested in the instructions. The diagram on how to hold the scissors while sharpening is good, however I found that I had to hold it more open and at a slightly wider angle between the two blades in order to get the very inner part sharpened. Also, I did the sharpening on a piece of scrap paper and moved the operation to be far away from the kitchen. The metal shavings, to me, are a hazard if too close to food or food utensils or surfaces (table or counter). I’ll try it out next time with another pair of scissors that have normal wear-and-tear to see how it performs. Thank you for this invention and tool. It is great to know I can hold on to a beloved pair of scissors.

This is really worth the money. My husband got my dull scissors he went down the sharpener 3x and they worked like they did when new. It was so fast I was so surprised how well they sharpener. Very easy to use

Tried three other shear sharpeners before this one. None of the expensive, professional sharpeners worked. These worked wonderfully. Sharpened the shears quickly and easily. They are now sharper than when they were new.
