Thank you for sharing how to sharpen cutters and shears.
Hey David! Glad you found this one useful. We're not pros by any means, but we've found this technique to be pretty quick and easy.
This is the best farming channel I have ever seen in the world！love you Duane 🥰
As always, you're so very encouraging YJ. Thank you.
Thanks for making the video I was requesting! Youre my hero lol
I kicked around the idea of starting it out, "Eric, this one's for you brother".
Great job Duan 👏
Thank you, it's all about the basics
Hey Eddie! That's about the extent of our experience on this subject, but hopefully it helps a few folks out there with keeping their equipment working!
I have the same pruners and sharpener. After sharpening the blade I run the sharpener flat against the back side of the blade to knock off any burs.
Great tip Michaela! That definitely keeps them from winding up in your fingers!
Yes, this is necessary. Knocking down the bur not only keeps you safer, it also keeps the blade sharper longer.
I sharpen my tools the same way and my husband always tells me I'm doing it wrong I can now tell him for sure he doesn't know what he is talking about
LoL I love it.
Maybe try that paper cutting trick for him. ;)
Thanks Duane. Didn't realize I had the Corona sharpener. I've used it for sharpening my pocket knives. According to another video I've seen online about knife sharpening, the paper cutting is a good indicator. If the blade cuts easily and smoothly, you've done it right.
I also do what Mr Gibbs does when he's done sharpening the blade.
Cheers
Hey Tony! Glad to hear the paper cutting thing is legit. Of course, the real test is cutting through a limb that pushes the size limit on the pruners.
Love the mid-week video!!! Great tips...time for me to get out there and sharpen my tools! :)
Hey Cecilia, glad you enjoyed this one. We had a few folks asking what we do to sharpen the pruners, so it made sense to get a short one in during the week.
So helpful, thanks Duane! I have been needing this exact information
Glad to hear it Christine. I'm sure there are more complicated ways to get the job done, but this one is pretty simple once you get the hang of it.
Thank you for the detailed video. I needed some good shears and a sharpener. Ordered from the link to amazon with a nice discount plus free shipping and recieved by 9 a.m. next morning!
Glad you found this one useful Laura and thanks for using the link!
G'day guys.
Great video as usual.
I have those exact same loppers all the way over on this side of the planet. They've never let me down.
Hey Daz! It's amazing to hear a product is available on the other side of the world. Goes to show just how much we have a global economy these days.
Fantastic content 👌 👏 👍
Glad you enjoyed this one. It's been a while since I've seen this one!
Very helpful. I always wondered how to sharpen my pruners.
Glad you found this one useful!
Great job, I sharpen my Corona shears and loppers in a similar fashion and afterwards I wipe them down with a little Ballistol oil which is non-toxic. Before and after I use my tools I wipe them down with some isopropyl alcohol to sterilize them, and before I put them away I wipe a little more Ballistol oil to keep the tools from rusting. Thank you for sharing.
Great tips Daniel. I wish I could say we were more consistent with the sterilization. That's a critical step in keeping any issues contained to just the problem tree.
Great advice! I have struggled as well with sharpening secateurs, I'll give a try with an analogue tool! It seems that even if that exact model is not available, there is quite a selection of tungsten carbide sharpeners of the same general form factor.
I'm sure you'll find something similar out there. It's amazing how well these stay sharp with this sharpening method.
