Make sure to maintain the correct angle for an optimal result. This method also works for sewing or general-purpose scissors.
Additional tips for caring for your scissors
Check the tension of the scissors: If they have a rivet and are loose, tap it lightly with a hammer to adjust it. In the case of higher quality scissors, they usually have a screw that allows the tension to be regulated.
Clean the blades regularly: Dust, paper residue or glue can affect the performance of the scissors. Use a damp cloth to keep them clean.
Avoid cutting unsuitable materials: Do not use paper scissors to cut fabric, thread, or hard materials, as this can quickly damage the edge.
Store them properly: Store them in a dry and protected place to prevent rust and premature wear.
With these simple tips and methods, your scissors will always be in perfect condition.
And remember that good maintenance extends the life of your tools!
