Pin<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this first trick or method, small or large pins will be used to sharpen the scissors with a straight blade. The way to do it is with a cutting motion as if we were going to cut the pin, we just have to do it with force.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Keep in mind that this operation can be repeated several times and try the scissors that we are sharpening, then clean the knives with a towel or kitchen paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Crystal Cup<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another very successful alternative is to make friction between the glass and the scissors, without a doubt this will make the blade sharpen. By simply making the movement of cutting on the side or mouth of a glass, remember that you can repeat the operation several times and leave it at its right point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Aluminum foil<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Using a large sheet of aluminum foil will be very useful, fold it several times but with the shiny side out until it is very thick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next step, we cut pieces with the scissors, one by one and in this way it will sharpen as it cuts. This method also works to sharpen the nail pliers, after repeating several times we proceed to clean the blades with a paper towel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Sandpaper<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To start, we take a fine sandpaper and fold it in half leaving the rough side out. Then, we proceed to cut the <a href=\"https:\/\/es.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Lija\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">sandpaper<\/a> with the scissors, at least 15 times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The recommendation is to repeat it several times and then clean the blades with a paper towel, then we will observe that the scissors are sharp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Whetstone<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When we are going to sharpen sharp objects, the procedure requires more dedication and for this we should disassemble the scissors to work more comfortably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Then, the stone is moistened and we begin to sharpen them. First, we use the thick side of the scissors that are the dullest to work with and we finish with the thin side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Next step, pass the leaf over the stone and rub each side of the leaf. We repeat it several times and finally, we proceed to clean the blades with a paper towel.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As we know, there are very necessary utensils in our home, and they are also very useful daily.
