  • To keep the blades on my tools sharp I use one of these
    Accusharp Knife & Tool Sharpener

    I use it on my mower blades,lawn side cutters, hand held shears even my spades

  • Before you sharpen, half open them and check for any play between the blades, if there is tighten the nut and bolt that holds the shears together as they can work loose
