Will this item also work to position household scissors?

I bought it and the plastic or rubber stickers on both sides which are there to prevent the friction against the stone, came off and so the guide drags. So I could not use it and so for me it is useless.

Yes. It's just a heavy duty plastic so good quality scissors or kitchen shears will do the trick.

I don't believe it would. The "sticky" part on each end is a joke and the width of the ends are so thin that getting them to actually stack and then not knocking it out of place every time you access the drawer seems impossible to me.

No, it has its own switch so you can position the piece exactly before cutting.

I believe it might since once you cut the item, such as a lemon, you put it on the machine and can simply press down with the palms of both hands if necessary, without having to grip item too tightly. There might be a bit of movement, but it will depend a bit on how you can work with it.

yes. This works on fixed blade, pocket knives and culinary knives. Very good item.

I've not used the scissor sharpener yet, but from the looks of the sharpener I don't think it would be easy to use with smaller sized scissors.

I don't think it does scissors for 2 reasons: 1) The detailed instructions do not mention scissors, and 2) The sharpener puts a two-angle symmetrical edge on a blade (i.e., the identical ground angle on both sides of the blade). A scissors blade edge is not symmetrical. Each side of the scissors has only one ground angle . . . not two.

I don't know for certain, but I doubt that it would work on any kind of scissors or shears.This sharpener is perfect for knives, but shears/scissors have a different shape entirely.

It might. I usually use mine when I am going to do a lot of sewing or cutting things out on the table.I used to use it at work when I was collating things on the conference table.Hope this helps. Friends who have tried it also like it.Diane

Yes..just make sure you angle it rightIts hard to sharpen the whole scissor blade

I would not recommend it. It sharpens both sides of a surface Repeted use would move your scissor blades further and further apart

Yes it will! With a bit of space between them.Source: I had one of these handy and tried it.

yes, but it won't guide your angle well. Like scissors, shears can be tricky. I'd highly recommend doing a search for a video demo of the best way to maintain your cutting edges.

it will do regular scissors and scissors for hair cutting. I am fairly confident that it can sharpen electrician scissors as well. This tool comes with a significant amount of adjustment settings for angles so that it should make sharpening electrician scissors entirely possible.

I think it would, it has a screw on clamp that holds really tight. Mine is on a level end table; I use it for my needle point and it works "excellent".It's the best purchase I ever made. And I made plenty of purchases regarding magnifying glasses for my needle points. And it swivels and bends and has a "really" bright light! I'm very pleased with it.

I suppose. Not with scissors. It has a frame too. So prob with saw or a similar tool. Not sure.
