How Your Equipment is Sharpened
Blades are disassembled, cleaned, and hollow ground. Springs, glides, and sockets are adjusted or replaced (if necessary) at no extra charge1. Blades are then cleaned again in blade wash containing a DISSENFECTANT and RUST INHIBITOR, lubricated and reassembled to precise factory tension and proper cutter setback. Each blade is string tested like the factory does it before it is returned to you.
Each shear is initially inspected; edges are re-sharpened to produce smooth, sharp scissoring; tension adjusted; bump stoppers, screws & washers replaced as needed at no extra charge1; then the shear is cleaned & lubricated, with final inspection and testing done on actual hair. As an active groomer, I set up shears for my hand making the tips cut a little more than the back of the shear. Usually the tension is OK for everyone by doing it this way. Corrugation is done by request at no charge, but it can take some of the cutting ability away from the blade its put on.
There are two movies on the "Instuctional Video" page that shows how blades are reassembled and adjusted, and another describing how shears are set-up and adjusted after sharpening.
1. This is within reason. If you have equipment that all has parts missing or broken you will be charged.

Here is my "On-site" sharpening Brochure and Pricelist. Print them out and give a copy to a friend. The prices are reasonable, competitive, and the sharpening is done right in your driveway. Service is what drives my business, and I sharpen equipment from all over the U.S. You can become one of the select grooming shops on the mobile sharpening route....Just Call. Your not going to anger the local guy, in fact, competition makes us better sharpeners.
I worked around my own grooming shop and was forced to use sharpeners who's work wasn't that good, and it never got any better. They ground my shears up, and I could count on 20% of the blades draggin' or not working at all when I got them back. On top of it all, they blamed me when I complained about something. We had to use this guy because he was the only sharpener around for years and we didn't know there was anything better. He became a habit.
"YOU NOW HAVE A BETTER CHOICE"
I'm a courteous, well educated Christian man who knows what goes on in your shop everyday, and I will listen intelligently to what your needs are. If you want great sharpening from a "World Class" sharpener, and would like to work with a friendly courteous person, its only a phone call away. Please call and take advantage of this opportunity, old habits are easy to break.

I'm always looking to help groomers in area's outside of my initail on-site coverage area. I'm considered to be a "Service Center", regardless of profit.
- If you feel that you and other groomers are a reasonable distance from Mobile Alabama, ( within a couple hundred miles ) CALL ME !
- If you are tired of mailing out blades, or worse yet, dropping off blades someplace and waiting a week or two for them, and you know other groomers in your area are tired of it as well CALL ME !
- If the local sharpener is just an old habit because its the only sharpening around, and you know everyone is tired of the quality of work. CALL ME !
We may include your city in the "on-site" sharpening service if I can acquire a few shops in the same area, ask around for me if you can or email me some phone numbers. My unit is self-contained and it would be very helpful if I could get a grooming shop parking lot to stay in overnight if we do come your way. I usually do a little free sharpening to compensate electricity for my lights and TV if there is a plug outside.
