First swipe your knife on the coarse side (left) about 6 or 8 times, then do the same on the fine side (right). Makes for a very sharp knife.

If you turn this sideways so the handle is straight up, you can then place your open scissor blades in the slot next to the logo. Simply close the scissors while sliding them out - repeat this action a few times, and you have sharpened your scissors with the scissor sharpener on this device.

the toold has a separate scissor sharpener; you put both blades through the scissor sharpener on each side of the blade and the make a scissor "cutting" motion. Works pretty well.

use a reel mower sharpening kit, which is basically a tub of grinding compound and a crank, quite easy to use, just follow the instructions and

The two buttons press together and pull out the silver section which holds the pencil. After that you hold the top of the sharpener down with your left hand and turn the crank to sharpen the pencil. Not difficult at all.

Yes, just don't try to sharpen scissors! I misread the directions the first time.... Now I have to send my kitchen shears back to the manufacture to be retooled. But, this works like an absolute dream on all my other knives!

The method I use is the worksharp electric sharpener. In the field I may use a crock box with ceramic rods or a regular stone sharpener

The clippings receptacle is the front of the sharpener.....grasp the plastic on each side and pull....its simple.

I used a simple, hand held sharpener. I found mine in the school supplies section. Make sure it has the larger hole

NO. Scissors are sharpened at a different angle.. If your scissors are only slightly dull, you can sharpen them by cutting thin strips of fine sandpaper. Cut the sandpaper in thin strips to conserve the sandpaper. If badly dull, you must obtain a sharpener designed for scissors. Never hone, sand or sharpen the inside edges of scissors. You can take off a a burr on the inside edges by laying the inside blade flat on some find sandpaper and drawing the blade off of the paper. Don't slide it sideways

i sharpen them by hand, they seem too delicate to sharpen with an electric sharpener. works just fine.

Yes. I sharpened a pair just this morning. The scissor blades need to open wide enough to accommodate the height of the sharpener, or if your blades come apart, that would even be easier.

I use the Lansky sharpening system and sharpen it by sections. I've also used the diamond edge "steel" to rought it in before I finished it. Works great for me!

I know you can sharpen scissors. I haven't tried yet but I have sharpened tin snips and axes. You can sharpen just about anything. All the guides come off or move to really work the tool.

I have never attempted to sharpen scissors and I really am not familiar with the finer points of the process. This stone is a very simple tool for sharpening simple non-serrated knives. If scissors can be sharpened by simply honing one or both sides of the blades, the stone should work fine. If you need to do something more intricate, it won't do.

I fold a paper towel and then turn the dowel so that the tray is fully open and I grab the blade with the towel. with my left hand and use my right hand to pop it up out where the sharpener is located. Be very careful. one slip could lead to the E.R. This is a COMERCIAL grade slicer, not one for rookies. Best bet would be chainmail gloves.

Scissors will work just fine. If you're worried about fraying you can use a match or lighter to singe the cut edges but it's probably not necessary.

I have a set of Henkel knives and it worked wonders on those. I've had the knives for over 10 years and never sharpened them until I purchased the Chef Choice 220. It doesn't work on kitchen scissors.

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.
