Apologies if this is a dumb question. Would this sharpen clipper blades? They are sharpened flat and I would like this for woodworking as well.

apologies if this is a dumb answer, but this machine can only sharpen small blades. because of the way it works, you couldn't use it on a kitchen knife. so how long are chipper blades?

I would suppose if you were shearing sheep with it that may be correct. While the blades do get warm, my son gives me a hair-cut with it every couple of weeks and it works fabulously. I used to use it on our cat but he passed away and we cleaned the clipper up and now use it personally. Just remember to oil the blades per the instructions. It is by far the best clipper we have ever used, first on our cat and now on me. Hope this helps.

Your question prompted me to try sharpening a couple bread knives and they did sharpen up. This iis a powerful sharpener and you have to be cateful with rhe sharpened knives afterwards.

Yes, this will sharpen all kinds of blades even recurves like on a kukri. As far as I'm concerned, the worksharp is the only way to sharpen a karambit blade! It does make short work of sharpening.

It would work for that, but would be very time consuming due to the fact that the blade is only about an inch wide. And u would still feel a little stubble. But it would def cut it and work a little closer that normal clippers... If u wanted large clippers to do the same cut just get a "000" blade for it (called triple zero)

Mike: I have not used it to sharpen mower blades, but I am sure it would work just fine. I don't know of a jig that can be used, but even by hand it should work just fine, unless you want to sharpen rotary blades. In that case, not a clue.

My husband says....the sharpener will produce a sharp enough enough edge to shave hair from your arm. However if you over sharpen your knife the edge will not last as long...but if you watch the video (included) they explain using the 30° back edge and that will help strengthen the edge. You can get a sharper edge by stropping...however I recommend the ultra find grit stones...purchased separately, for razor sharp edge.

It will sharpen most any straight edge knife. I use it on kitchen, pocket, and hunting knives. It works great.

I used clipper oil for my hair clippers. Depends on what you are sharpening.

Yes and no if the blade is very dull it won't sharpen, if the blade is sharp it will maintain the blade. I use a hand file to first shape the edge then I use the sharpener.

I don't know. I bought an extra when I got the clippers and haven't had the need to sharpen or replace yet! Sorry!

It should sharpen it without any issue. I have sharpened several pocket knives, 3" and up. Also, a few 10" kitchen knives.

Not sure, but if it helps, I used it to sharpen my clippers, the straight razor blades may be too brittle

I hadn't tried it on scissors before, so I just took a pair of my scissors and it sharpened them razor sharpthanks fpr the heads up, just another use for this amazing sharpener

I have used this on my serrates knives but I do it very gently. It works wonderful on all the other knives. One mistake that people make is they think that the honing tool is to sharpen the knives it only is to straighten the edge of the knives. I hope that this answers your question. Have a glorious Thanksgiving and a Blessed Christmas.

yes it would. I wouldn't use it to chop wood. but it is a reasonably good sword for show.

I have a Boker ceramic knife. I did use the Duosharp to sharpen mine and it will definitely sharpen the knife. Is it the recommended way? Don't know. My instructions tell me to send the knife back to Boker to be sharpened. Brian
