I've learned so much from your videos. I'm a 30 year groomer and have been sharpening for a few years in California and for the first time I knew what to do in regards to the angle of that particular shear not being a 40 or 45 degree as I have sharpened quite a few of them. Most grooming shears run around 35°. I k I'm md of feel like I've graduated from your online academy lol. You are a wealth of knowledge and I'm glad its engraved on the internet for anyone to find answers from an expert. so thanks!

[@BonikaShears]

You humble me! Thank you for the praise. "engraved on the internet" hmmm

[@MRmladen111]

8 inch is not easy for sharpening. But for Bonika everything is fine 👍

[@BonikaShears]

[@maurocarlosdealmeida]

Bonica,mande mais informações sobre este braço articulado por favor

[@Markkus12]

I have a knife and tool sharpening business but I do not get many shears. Your videos are very helpful in being ready should some show up! What kind of magnifier are you using?

[@BonikaShears]

It is called the magni-wand. This is the link to purchase bonika.com/products/magni-wand

Another great video Bonika, I've seen another video of yours where you talk about those rounded whetstones, but I can't find it. What's the name of those stones please? As it's always tricky to remove the bur on the curved scissors. Thank you.

[@BonikaShears]

Those are called the archones. they are on the website. They are on a video I'll be uploading soon. Please subscribe if you haven't already.

[@codyconrad7333]

Seems like these jigs would be a lot more helpful if they had some Spring loading to prevent them from falling back on you.

[@BonikaShears]

Sounds like a future upgrade to develop. thanks for the idea.

[@stephenalexander8135]

I was recently defeated by a pair of scissors(for the first time). They were a pair of curved grooming scissors. After sharpening, a 10 mm section of the scissors, 5 mm back from the tip would not cut. Besides that wee section, the rest of the scissor would cut cling film cleanly. Eventually I had to give up on them. I returned them to the customer and wish I had held on to them to keep working on them to find out the problem. I hold you any money, that when I ask them tomorrow, to keep them for me, they will have thrown them out.

[@BonikaShears]

You might be surprised and they think they cut ok.

[@viorelmunteanu9338]

O maşinărie care ar fi cea mai bunā?
