AccuSharp ShearSharp Scissor Sharpener

The AccuSharp ShearSharp is a scissor sharpener with a yellow handle and a tungsten carbide element, using no oils or stones.

Scissors are sharpened differently from knives. Only the outer bevel is cut, and the inner faces must stay flat, since scissors cut by shearing against each other rather than by edge alone. A knife sharpener used on scissors rounds the inner face and ruins the shearing action permanently.

Tungsten carbide will not rust, and the whole tool is dishwasher safe, which suits a kitchen where scissors are used on food. A full length safety guard keeps fingers clear, and the yellow handle makes the tool easy to find in a drawer of similar-looking items. Explore more sharpeners.
