    Metal Shear Resharpening

    We currently have around 5 table top metal shears to cut all of our engraving stock, a couple of them are getting dull and they need to get resharpened.

    We used to send it to a company in Carrollton, TX (we are in the DFW area) but the company is not longer in business, any of you guys know where to send the blades to get resharpened, something local would be great, if not anything will work at this point.


    Thanks

    You might check for knife shapening in your area or stop by a lawnmower repair shop.
    Most that sharpen are set up to sharpen different items.

    I sent mine to Edge Rite Tool Co and they did a fantastic job and the turnaround was very fast. http://edge-rite.com/

    If you use a local sharpener make sure they know the correct angles to sharpen for metal vs plastic - some do and some don't. edge-rite does...
