- Hello. This is Robert Veach here showing a simple 3 minute hack that will sharpen your rotary blades for FREE! It works for ALL brands of shavers, men or woman's.
That is the not the case for over 90% of blades out there. The blade is a dual tapered design, the toothpaste allows the slightly curved edges to be honed against the mating back screen. If you run it on a flat surface, you will just further dull the blades.

After watching this I was a little skeptical but tried it on a 7 year old Phillips electric which I hadn't used in a couple of years. I did the steps twice. And safe to say I'm impressed, no snagging or pulling. Just a really close clean cut. Thanks for the information 👍
Glad it worked for you.
Practical tips like these that help us commoners in our daily lives are very welcome, I thank you for choosing to share this trick with the rest of us! ❤ 🤗 😊 It is really appreciated!
You are so welcome!
Of all the videos I watched on YT, about sharpening blades on rotary machines, this one is the most consistent for keeping the blades in good condition.
Other videos talk about sharpening blades with a flat grinder and glass finish, but it is not suitable for curved profile blades.
Thank you for documenting this.😀
you are welcome.
Thank you very much Robert for taking your time to put this out on UA-cam I used it on my NORELCO that was not doing anything but just beating the whiskers to death and now it cuts very nicely, just like new!
glad it worked for you!
I've just tried it and the blades are sharp like they're brand new. Thanks a lot.
Great to hear!
I'll be darned! I'll give this a try as soon as my latest replacement blade set on my Norelco rotary shaver shows signs of 'dulling' I'll report back.
8/24/21: I tried this and WOW! It worked. I just shaved after doing this procedure yesterday and it IS just like putting a new set of heads in my shaver. DO THIS and save!
11/8/21: Just resharpened my shaver - AGAIN! This procedure is amazing. Again Robert - Thank You.
Thanks - very cool hack!
I'm busy watching this when I should be working. I can't wait to get home and give it a try.
Sir, you’re a genius! Thanks so much. It worked on my 4-year old Dual Precision blades which I use daily. I can feel the smooth close shaves on the skin again.
Glad it helped!
Amazing! This actually worked. My Norelco is probably 10 or 15 years old and it's so dull now such that it occasionally pulls at the hair above my upper lip and it hurts. It also takes me a long time to shave because of having to go over it again and again until it cuts the hair.Thanks much!
you are welcome!
I have just used this to sharpen my heads and it works. I remember seeing a video about using handwash after you shave to keep it clean, when I take them apart to check them, they are totally clean.
Great tip!
Thankyou Robert, I was about to buy some new blades for my Philips 5000 series when I came across your video, I followed your instructions and and am amazed at how sharp the blades have become. Thankyou, it's like having a new shaver.
you are welcome.
Oh man, the easiest, fastest, cheapest, most hassle-free method - perfect! :)
I also tried a fine chrome/steel-polish-paste, which works fine, but will mostly use toothpaste as it's already right there beside the shaver.
Thank you very much, great short tutorial!🥳
you are welcome.
I just started with the electric rotary shaver 3 months ago. I am glad I found this video early as I thought I needed new blades. I tried this today and it seems very good. I'll try it once my hair grown a bit longer. Thank you for this tip!
yes, it is a way cool hack!
I have an old Norelco 8240XL and they don't make the replacement HQ9 blades anymore. There are a few available but they cost as much as a new razor. Saw a number of other hacks for sharpening the blades and they required power drills or sandpaper, and then I saw your simple but brilliant solution. As a retired engineer, I salute you.
Thank you. I am an engineer also.
Still got my 8240xl, just replaced the original blade. You are right about costing as much as a new razor. With this trick, I will be probably never have to replace them. Btw, best shaver I ever used.
I also have an old 8240XL that I’ve had for many many years and used to sharpen via the whetstone method. Yep, Norelco no longer makes the HQ9 head. There are a gazillion on Amazon, but are all Chinese and mostly junk and a waste of money. Your method is novel, easy, and inexpensive. I will certainly try it out. Right now I have the blades and foils soaking in alcohol to degrease.
Wow this really works I followed instructions and my philishave is sharper than new thank you so much!!
Glad it helped!
What a brilliant hack. Thank you for a great upload!
Glad you like it!
Amazing! Just tried it on a budget (Silvercrest) shaver- works like new. Thank you!
Great to hear!
This really does work. I'm impressed
Thank you for sharing this.
you are welcome.
A big THANK YOU from Germany. Much appreciated. It works brilliantly.
Glad it helped
My partner was given his first electric razor when his dad passed away. My partner tried it and said it was useless and pulled on his hairs. Because I'm a huge fan of reusing and DIY hacks, I thought I'd try this. First, when I popped open the cover it looked like nobody had ever cleaned it (thanks for showing me how to open it). Then I followed your instructions. I actually gave it two toothpaste treatments because when I cleaned out the toothpaste (after the soap) even more hairs and gunk came out. I cant wait for my partner to get home and give his dad's electric razor another try...!
Let me know how it worked!
Just tried this out ,, got to say worked perfectly blades cutting much closer ,, thanks man 👍
Great to hear!
Thanks!! Looking very much forward to try it 😁
Hope you enjoy it!
tried this out the other day and they seem to shave better now. thanks for sharing!
Great to hear!
This was *_immensely_* helpful! Thank you so much. 🙏
You're so welcome!
Great video. I tried it and saved my self $$ on buying new one. I have a Remington rotary shaver that was dull. Seemed to fix it, I can hear it cutting hairs now. I also tried it on a $14 budget rotary razor, that has blades that stick straight up against mesh, they are sharp, have cut my self few times cleaning head. Tried it on it and seems to sharpen that too. Got that one from Giant Tiger.
Thanks!
Thanks! Worked great!
Glad it helped!
Nice info sir. Keep posting like this many. Good Good.
Thank you, I will
Genius! Wish I'd seen this sooner! You should recieve an Oscar Sir! This should become standard requirement Naval grooming shave procedure Quantico! May the good Lord bless and keep you! THANK YOU!😅
Glad you liked it!
Wonderful video and method! Thank you for the video.
Glad it was helpful!
You deserve an emmy! I should have been doung this all these years! Wow ! Thank you Sir! When I find my norelco maybe I try this technique! Sounds like really good idea!
thanks!
You Sir! Need to be knighted!!! What an amazing hack. I did it today my god what diff it makes for shaving. Sending thanks from Singapore
Thanks. I do this about every month.
Aloha Robert, I just bought a replacement set and they did not shave any better than the old set. So I performed your procedure on my old blades, and voila.....got a nice close shave again.
yes, it really works!
great idea I'm impressed
Glad you like it!
This is so cool thank you!
No problem!
Strange but it worked very well! Thanks Rob!
you are welcome.
Thx buddy am going to try it. I use the same machine and it always gave me headaches to remove and clean 👍🏽🤜🏽✊🏽
Glad to help
Brilliant idea, thank you for sharing I was going to purchase replacement blades until I seen this.
Very welcome
@@jeffgrave WORK ON PANASONIC ARC 5?
Thank you, good idea. Bronce polisher & bathroom cleaner powder mix also works. Regards 😀
Great tip!
Cool. Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Brilliant!
Thanks!
You are a legend....
thank you!
Close inspection of my razor's blades reveals they are indeed on their last legs (a couple of them are very flimsy and bent). However, that said, this did make a notable improvement. I think I can eek a little more life out of these blades before replacing them.
yep, it does work.
Whoa thank you so much. It worked on both my Philips norelco 3500 rotary shaver and my Braun series 3 foiler. Basically for the foiler I just moved it up and down on my hand, but it still worked, thanks.
you are welcome, glad it worked for your shaver!
Works on Braun series 7 ?
I am going to try this. I sharpen my blades by rotating the them clockwise and counter clockwise on 1000 grit sand paper. That works but your method looks easier. Thanks for the video.
sandpaper usually does not work because the blade companies figured this out and now make the blades with an angled pitch.
Genius idea!
Thanks!
@@jeffgrave My shaver wasn't holding charge, so I changed the battery, cleaned and degreased the heads using dilute vinegar, then sharpened the heads with toothpaste as in your video. Now, the shaver is better than new, and the shave I get is amazingly good. Really close with no 5 o'clock shadow. Thanks for the toothpaste hack. It really works.
ingenious
thanks!
Smart trick!
thanks.
I have a Braun series 7... It's not rotary like yours, it's a foil that's flat... What you've done looks great, makes great sense. Would this hack work on the Braun series 7, just wondering thanks
YES it will work on foil shavers also.
I have a 10 year old Philips Sense 3D RQ1250 shaver do I use these steps with the cutting wheels still in the unit please? And can this be done on the side trimmer that is attached for that blade or doesn’t that work in the same method?
I looked up your Philips Sense 3D RQ1250 shaver . Yes, use this same technique for the rotary blades. It will not improve sharpness of the trimmer.
Hi Robert
After watching your video 6 months ago I have been doing this with my Phillips series 3000 rotary shaver and it works every time 😃 THANKS
Just wondering are you still doing this on the same set of heads which would be an amazing 7 years if I am correct..all the best Tony
yes I am!
@@jeffgrave you use the same razor as in the video?
Would you recommend lubricating the blades every so often to prolong life of the blades, if so, what would be the best lubricant?
Yes, a silicone based lubricant, usually comes with shaver.
@@jeffgrave thanks
Will it work on foil shavers too?
yes.
Will it work on a Phillips 3000 series rotary razor
yes!
Thank you mate it's like having a new razor brilliant
Will definitely try this. Couple of questions. How often to do this? Also, how often to oil the blades? Thanks for the hack!
You are welcome. I do it when I notices less cutting performance. I do not oil my blades.
I have an old 8240XL. Just checked the manual and it says one drop of mineral oil in the center of each foil every 6 months. But I’ve never oiled it.
You don’t need toothpaste just take off the blade guards and run the razor underneath a piece if ceramic tile and it will sharoen the blades
That is the not the case for over 90% of blades out there. The blade is a dual tapered design, the toothpaste allows the slightly curved edges to be honed against the mating back screen. If you run it on a flat surface, you will just further dull the blades.

any time I shave & feel the blades are a little dull. For me, it ends up being about once per month.
