Knife Sharpening

I have a ceramic knife sharpener that looks like this one

 

(bit big, sorry)

and another that I just bought -   

 

I also have a whetstone, but can't be bothered with that one.

 

My question is..............can I sharpen scissors on either of those?

 

They come apart,  so no problem there

 Or,  do they need to be professionally sharpened?

Do you have one of the King of Knives shops near you? They do knife/scissor sharpening in specific weeks.

Nope, am,  no King of Knives anywhere near me.

 

But the foil cutting trick worked a treat.

 

That should keep me happy for a while.

Someone said--you can hear the knives sharpening in the inner office,

---wonder what they used.........................................Richo.

You could of tried to sell the foil strips to the R.A.A.F as fighter aircraft eject loads of them to evade missiles

I sharpen my scissors by cutting through steel-wool or sandpaper. Works well.
