Is it just Northern Ireland, or is this happening everywhere?
I’m finding more and more scissors that have been “sharpened” by someone else and I’m having to undo the damage.
In this video, the before shows a pair of scissors that left the factory with a Japanese convex edge, but the previous sharpener used a grinder and put a German style bevel edge on them instead.
That completely changes how the scissors cut.
The after shows me reconvexing the blade, restoring the factory style edge, and bringing the scissors back to life.
This is why proper scissor sharpening matters.
Are other sharpeners/barbers seeing the same thing in their area?
