Question

Is it true that you can sharpen scissors by cutting aluminum foil with them?

Answer 1

    I'll have to try both sandpaper and foil, thanks

Answer 2

The fine sandpaper will smooth out the edge and make them cut smoother but only as a temporary solution. To prperly sharpn scissor is not like a knife. It is more important that the flat part is really flat as oppsoed to just sharpening the angle.

Answer 3

sandpaper works

Answer 4

yep.

Answer 5

not really. just makes nice slices of foil.

Answer 6

I've never heard of using aluminum foil to sharpen scissors....that's interesting. But I myself cut into a piece of fine sandpaper about 5 times. Hope this works also for you.

Answer 7
