There are 3 types of sharpening depending on the type of scissors:
1. Classic sharpening, which corresponds to 90% of all sharpenings
2. Japan Style sharpening (Japanese scissors). These scissors have a "razor blade" sharpening and are made on special grinding wheels.
3. Sharpening of micro-toothed scissors. This type of scissors requires special care because it is necessary to sharpen the scissors in a classical way.
Straight scissors: Yes.
Curved scissors: Yes.
Sharpening scissors: Yes, but only the blade with straight teeth.
Carving scissors: Yes, but only the straight blade.
Fishtail scissors: Yes.
Of course, as soon as they stop cutting ;) In general, in professional use, scissors should be sharpened every 3 to 4 months.
It depends on the type of scissors, but don't worry, our sharpeners are professionals and they will let you know if it is no longer possible.
There are multiple ways to guarantee optimal scissor sharpness: By eye: Any imperfection is visible to the naked eye by lack of brightness. Cutting test: Each pair of scissors is tested for cutting and sharpness.
Sharpening is carried out at the MARTIN FACTORY (Maubeuge) site, whose address is: MARTIN FACTORY, Service Après Vente, rue du chemin vert, 59600 Maubeuge, France.
The sharpening of the scissors will be done in Maubeuge and will be sent in a different package than the articles. There will be only one shipping cost and none if your order exceeds free shipping for metropolitan France excluding Corsica.
Scissors with serrated edges are also called micro-toothed scissors. This type of scissors is often used for beginners because they allow to better "hold" the hair between the blades and to make clean lines. You don't have to buy micro-toothed dog or cat scissors, you can also have them converted from conventional scissors to micro-toothed scissors. This is not possible for Japan Style scissors because of their razor effect.
