Special Way To Sharpen Pruning Shears As Sharp As A Razor

As a D.I.Y. enthusiasts and a creative individual I can't believe I hadn't come across the battery trick to removing rust. Thank you for this

GREAT - makes the world glad we have YouTube & YOU !!!

Good for restoring old school tools that were made of better metal.

"Wow, this video was incredibly insightful! I never thought sharpening pruning shears could be this easy and effective. The step-by-step demonstration was clear and easy to follow. Thank you for sharing such valuable DIY knowledge!"

Ingenious! The creator must be an engineer. Only one point of correction, though, and it’s a pretty major point. The shears in the video are bypass pruning shears and the section on sharpening is incorrect. First, you do not need to sharpen the lower arm of bypass pruning shears. Only the upper arm does the actual cutting. Second and much more important, you should not sharpen both sides of the upper arm of bypass shears. For anvil shears, yes, but not for bypass shears. It will damage and dull the shears if you do. You should ONLY sharpen the angled (beveled) side. Once you are completely finished sharpening the angled side, you make ONE swipe on the other side — the flat side — with whatever you used for the final sharpening on the angled side. This is to remove any possible burrs. But that’s all. Some experts say not to even do that much — that just opening and closing the shears will remove any burrs on the flat side. Aside from that, I loved the video. The section on sharpening should be redone and the video titled, “A Geek’s Guide to Pruning Shears.”

I’ll just go and get new ones. Thank you

It's fine if you have the time, but sometimes time is money.

It would be easier to buy a new pair of cutters.!!!!

An excellent vedio. One suggestion ... if the items are held under the rotating "drum" rather than on top, one can see the proper angle to hold the blade parts. Thanks for making this video ... now to revive my old pruners.

When he started to sand it with a power tool that was it for me.

Use the center of the battery for sharpening it should work way better and can be used for welding as well😊

I would prefer to buy new ones!!!

You did well, my dear.

Nice...but $.99 @ the dollar store !😢

Total waste of time!

Very good idea 😊 thanks from Türkiye

I'm Looking from Östervåla Sweden very interesting video

Cool idea but... I wouldn't use one of my drills. All that crud being so close to the chuck... after a few times doing this you would seize up your drill.

I have never had a battery peal that easy either lol

Incredible job 🎉
