This is possible. The most important factor for sessionrs to sharp is Kashime , seems that this has a screw to make the adjustment in Kashime . So, all we will need is to make the lower blade to sharp according to the current bevel. I still cannot believe that Carbide can sharp the edge like this by just touching up the blade. I wanna see more of your Video!
Overall, the main thing to having a good sharp blade is to maintain a consistent angle against the sharpening stone or device. If you cannot maintain a consistent angle, you'' have a good edge, then grind it away. I use a belt sharpening system for most blades such as chef's knives. You can actually take a blade too far and sharpen it so much it doesn't cut as well as if you had not polished the edge. I worked with a seller on Amazon and discussed the metal, the Damascus pattern and some information they may want to update to provide better information that would provide them with better sales, and they offered me any knife I wanted for a thank you. I wanted a Sashimi blade which is a really low angle bevel and shaped like a chef's knife, but the edge is such a shallow angle it can easily cut paper thin cuts, but the angle has so little meat behind the edge that the edge can roll over if you cut on a hard plate or similar surface. The blade I received was so sharp out the box I didn't sharpen it. It cut well cutting raw potatoes, so I just left it alone. When I sharpened it later, I stopped at the highest grit short of a polishing belt and the blade cut so much better. It could also easily slice through paper as you see people do on TV. The next time I sharpened it I went further and went to a higher grit and polished the edge to a shiny gloss. Although the bevel was smoother and a better angle, the polishing belt took away the micro-serrations left by the lower grit belt which allowed the blade to catch fibers better and make better cuts. The knife had a hard time cutting through paper like this too. So, I just went back and used the lower grit belt and it cut beautifully again. Now if I could just stop my wife and daughter from cutting on plates and rolling the edge over, the knife would stay sharp much longer LOL.
Test them with thin braided fishing line. If they can cut that stuff (entire length of blades) then to me they're pretty sharp. Note: Don't hold the line tight, that's cheating. Cut an inch or less off the end.
I've been a barber and a barbering instructor for 26 years. I had a pair of $375.00 shears completely ruined with this nonsense. It's my fault for listening and letting them be rendered useless. Good shears need to be sharpened by a someone that really knows what their doing. I've never owned a pair of quality shears with ridges in them to trap the hairs so they can be cut. Any seasoned barber with experience will tell you that a pair of shears are usually ruined by dropping them because it will nick the blades and getting them sharpened by someone that isn't specifically trained makes them out of balance. I wouldn't waste any money on this. It's a great way to have your investment ruined. And there are plenty of us that aren't "trolls."
You're right - Brad even says at 2:40 and 6:05 that if you do this for a living - send them in. Thanks for your kind thoughts and watching our video... I think...?
Unless you break or bend the blades the scissor is not damaged " forever". A bad sharpening may, MAY, shorten the life of the scissor but not permanently ruin it. I have re-convexed scissors that were beveled. I have a Ez Vex and years of sharpening experience using stones.
Out of balance. And if you drop them what makes you think they’re going to get a nick in the cutting edge. Not necessarily true. You Denteley didn’t watch the whole video or listen to what I said. As I said if you’re really going to make a living with your hair shears send them in and get them ground professionally. I also say I tune up a pair two or three times then send them in to get them ground by a professional. Wake up dude. Thanks for watching.
Remember as you sharpen keep the exact same bevel that was ground on them. Do not touch the cutting edge without being on the exact same bevel they were ground out. If you do they will not cut anymore. Then you probably will have to send them in and get them ground. Have a great day and thank you for watching.
I don't mean to sound like a troll, but two things. First, those are not professional salon shears. Decent salon shears start at about $250 and go up to well over $1,000 a pair for high end shears I got a hair cut last night and was talking to the stylist and the lady next to her had $1,200 shears. If someone with quality shears saw you sharpening their expensive shears like this, they would be upset. Second, I could tell in the first 60 seconds when you were cutting paper that you may know a ton about sharpening many types of blades, but salon shears were not something you had any real training in. To properly sharpen salon shears you should take them apart into the two separate blades, sharpen the inside ride line (where the concave curve is) on a quality high grit stone that has been flattened, then use a sharpening system to sharpen the convex side of the blade which you need some type of sharpening system to do correctly. Trying to sharpen the convex side would be a nightmare to try and do by hand. When sharpened correctly, you can take a piece of tissue paper and spray it with water, and still cut smoothly all the way to the tips without any pulling on the material being cut.
Hi there, you seem to know a bit about other ways to sharpen scissors for hairdressers - I haven't had much luck finding a good video, are there any good demo videos that u know of I can check out? T.i.a.
@@leacebee5892 Thanks Lissa! I've been sharpening all types of blades for about 44 years so I have a well rounded history sharpening my items and a few others. I was going to start doing this as a business and bought an instructional video from Wolff and the Ookami Gold system. It was about $35 1-2 years ago, but it was enough to give me some good information. There is a lady that I used to watch her videos but for the life of me I cannot recall her name and I cannot find any of her videos. She's maybe in her 50's, maybe a little older, and I was going to go to her to get some hands on training. For one, she used to be a science teacher so she has professional background in training, so that gives her a big head start over anybody else. I looked in my email and wasn't able to find her either, and I chatted with her a spell. There are professional sharpening systems aside from the Ookami. Some have a flat spinning surface on the top, and the lady I mentioned had a similar one that spun on the side. Some have two tables so you don't waste as much time switching different grits.
Very comical you just keep mentioning high-end high-quality $1,000 $1,200 shears for a commercial full time barber. not once did I say that’s how you sharpen those hair shears.
@@bradbuckner9496 I chuckle at those $1,200 retail shears knowing the markup and margins. Was recently offered some Pakistan semi-convex that could retail $129.00 Cost for 144 each $7.00. So let's not blow smoke up keesters about retail cost of shears. And as an aside, get a convex scissor and dress the edge with one of these carbide gizmos. Clamp it and use a very light touch. You can bring up a whisper of a burr. It takes a really light touch. Dress the rideline normally then test. When you get the technique down it will cut hair and never push it. I don't use the carbide technique, but don't kid yourself. It can be done. I found this out with a knifemaker using a single edge file to sharpen a Dimascus blade he made. You pull the file across, not push it. Using very light pressure.
It used to cost my wife almost $20 (15 years ago) to sharpen her barber scissors. I was going to attempt this but I was afraid that when it comes time to assemble the scissors might be too tight or too loose.
2 years ago, I think the going rate was around $25 per sharpening. I saw many people on UA-cam doing sharpening's for full price, but they were not taking the shears apart which means the ride lines would not line up appropriately. It may not be noticeable for a few sharpening's, but if you're paying full price, you should receive the full service.
Try cutting wet toilet paper or those thin plastic bags from the grocery store. Until you can do that all the way to the tip without any pull, you don't know nuffin'. And I'm not a "toll" I'm a professional sharpener. What you ended up with there, most of the hair stylists I know would just throw in the trash. Or, They'd bring it to me and I'd fix it.
Good day. You need to watch my videos. You will see I actually take the time to dull the object completely and then resharpen it. ( not this time) These hair sheers are the ones my videographer's wife uses to cut his hair. I sharpen from where they are the same way YOU would as if they were in your house. YOU would NOT let them get completely dull before you sharpen them. WOULD, you. Besides, a lot of my videos are to show you the procedure and what it would look like. many of my videos show the object actually being ( with before and after ) SHARPENED. Thank you for watching.
Gav carpy Cross you use the word , never. Many of my videos start from dull to sharp. These sheets were as dull as they would have been if a person was to send them in for sharpening.
Gav carpy Check out his other videos were he has taken store bought knives and dulled them on the back of other knives then sharpen them back to razor edge so he has done that and has also made a butter knife which last i checked was rather dull and has sharpen it to cut. Very well
He as also sharpened other things that are not supposed to be sharp i think he has done a metal ruler credit card a spatula what more proof or evidence do u need. Love the videos brad u got the best dam sharpener out there
You can NOT effectively do barber shears. First off those are pure junk with a serrated type edge anyway. The Sharpens Best..or any knife sharpener cannot correctly follow the angles nor is the grit high enough to effectively do a good job. You can sharpen them to cut paper. Yes. To cut hair effectively? No.
Rick Boone you can sharpen barber scrissors but not in the way he does ! That's not right ! One you let it sharpen in professional way -you can ship it to the company you buyed ! Or professional's they do that buisness ! Or by hand and grid or sharpening system but you must be carful !
I like this guy. You can tell he knows a thing or two. I love learning from people who just have so much life experience. Thank you guys
