All my shears were very blunt and I could not find anyone to sharpen them. I saw this on Ebay and thought I would give it a try as it was Which recommended. I am so glad I did as all my shears are now sharp and I have been able to do a lot of clipping in the garden that was previously impossible. My husband has been proved wrong (he said it would not work) and my daughter also has a sharp pair of shears. With care it also sharpened my pruners. All in all a great product which I highly recommend.

Did an OK job on some kitchen scissors. Screwed it to a bit of wood and popped it into the workmate. Took apart my garden edging shears because if you don't you couldn't do the whole length of the blade Spent a while running it through and after around 10 mins got a fairly sharp edge which will do for now. To be fair I reckon its WELL overpriced for what it is, Really needed a coarse stone insert in then a fine one to finish the job. I will have another go with it but reckon it will go on the pile of tried it, but it didn't quite do what I wanted it to do !.

We're using this for sharpening kitchen scissors. The instructions tell you to screw it down, and you'd probably need to do that for shears, but it's possible to do scissors holding it in your hand. It's easy enough to use, and is definitely improving our (really blunt) scissors over time, although it didn't transform them instantly.
