Sharpening shears and tinsnips requires care to maintain their effectiveness and precision. First, clean the blades with soapy water to remove debris and dry them thoroughly. Dismantle them if possible for easier access. Use a fine file or whetstone, maintaining the original angle of the cutting edge. Gently glide the sharpener along each blade's edge, ensuring consistent strokes from base to tip. For serrated blades, a special conical file is necessary to fit the serrations. After sharpening, wipe the blades with a lightly oiled cloth to prevent rust. Test the sharpness on scrap material. Regular maintenance extends their lifespan and ensures clean, effortless cuts in metal or other materials.
