Sharpening in
Manchester

A large percentage of our customers either cut hair or are tailors. Those who cut hair or cut fabrics need scissors and shears to be at their sharpest all of the time. Although there are sharpeners available for self use at home or at work these are not as good as the tools and the machines, which we can use. The do it at home sharpeners only make blades sharper for a few days, it often seems that it is not worth the constant effort. It makes far more sense to have one of our professionals do the sharpening for you. The specialist tools we use can keep the scissors or shears sharp enough for months instead of days. These machines can also alter angles besides increasing the sharpness of blades. Barbers, hairdressers, as well as tailors often need blades angle to cut hair or fabrics in order to get the desired look or effect. In any case these machines are so good it will almost convince you that these are new scissors or shear instead of ones that we sharpened for you.

Our experienced sharpeners have had years of practice and expertise in dealing with professional tailor shears and scissors. Dressmaking shears can be very expensive tools and we believe that sharpening with the professionally developed equipment reduces the chances of removing too much metal from professional fabric scissors. It does not make the shears thin over time. There are many companies that use machines to sharpen hair shears. The benefit of having sewing scissors sharpened on by a professional sharpener are that not only do you benefit from the years of product servicing experience but they also get serviced on quality purpose built machines worth thousands of pounds. The difference between an internet sourced £20 and a £2000 hair shear sharpening machine becomes obvious quite fast.

Apart from just the longevity of the sharpness of the blades, the angle of the blade is another factor that we keep in mind while sharpening the embroidery scissors. Hairdressers need shears that are accurate with the angles and to maintain the desired angle, the machines that are use are equipped with angle measurement fixtures that allow the sharp-tech to achieve the right angle every time.

The shears used for cutting fabrics are often quite expensive, especially compared with hair cutting scissors. Therefore we believe that the machines we use to sharpen blades should be of a higher quality as well. While you could buy a sharpener as cheaply as £20 to do your own sharpening it has to be done once a week or so, On the other hand some of the machines we have cost £2000 yet your blades stay sharper for so much longer. Furthermore our sharpeners will not strip away the surface metal of your shears as it only sharpens the blades. With scissors or shears used for cutting hair the initial thing we do is unscrew them. This allows us to sharpen one blade at a time.As previously mentioned our machines allow us to make sure the blades of the scissors or shears are set to be at the most effective for sharp and clean cuts. Our professionals will get the right angle every time

Our mobile sharpening process works similarly to the machines you may use to sharpen blades yourself, the main difference been that our machines are of a higher quality. We can also change the angle the blades are sharpened. Will we do several runs with the blade to make absolutely sure that it is sharp enough. We also make sure that the stone is totally flat so that the blade is equally sharpened all the way along. Our mobile service still ensures that your shear blades are sharper for longer. A good piece of advice for those of you that sharpen shears with your own machine is not to alter any of the angles and to leave it at the default setting. Also you should always make sure that the stone is moving away from you rather than running towards you.

Having blades professionally sharpened makes a great of sense for the majority of dressmakers and a fair percentage of hairdressers too. For a start though it costs you it is certainly more time effective than using your own sharpener.

You can rely on us to use the best machines plus the best sharpening stones. In some professions you can get away with using cheaper materials or lower quality machinery. We cannot do so when it comes to scissor and shear sharpening. As we use the best machines and stones the blades of your shears or scissors will be sharp enough to cut fabrics or hair cleanly.

Yet all of our professionals are aware that it is the stone, which can make or break the blade sharpening. When the stone is true then we can be certain that the blades will perform at their best once they are in your hands.
