Scissor sharpening

[bang saen guy]

Anyone know of a reputable place in Pattaya to have scissors sharpened? I do well with knives but scissors baffle me

Buy yourself a scissor/knife sharpening tool from Lazada

Tell your wife you have a mia noi and she will get them sharpened.

Fiskars make an excellent scissor sharpening device that is as easy to use as the scissors! Pocket sized, and inexpensive if you can find it.

Otherwise, here is an effective  tool for sharpening scissors, but I do NOT recommend it for knives.

I don't live in Pattaya, but I can assure you that most modern-day barbers take their high-priced scissors to people they can trust.  Assuming you're trying to sharpen a valuable pair of scissors, 

I googled for some possibilities:

I live in Udon and take our knives to a sharpener who does a booming business sharpening barber scissors.  We've known him for 20 years......always does a great job on our scissors.  20 baht each.

Fold a strip of aluminum foil over and over several times.

Then 'snip–snip' small pieces off the strip and discard.

Voila!!!

Cut thin strips off of 60 to 100 grit sandpaper depending on scissor type. Even works for garden scissors.  Never failed me. I use 100 grit to keep our scissors sharp after use or when my wife gets ahold of them.  Make sure the scissor blades are tight and touching each other when closed (not warped).  Does not work with serrated scissors, such as for cutting cooked meat.  It can actually ruin these type of scissors.

 

Try it, what have you got to loose?  I had my doubts at first.

I am not sure they are good for scissors, they are supposed to be self sharpening and sharpened from one side.

There will definitely be someone local who will gladly do it for a small price.
