CERAMIC SHEARS


I got to do something I don't get to do very often, I sharpened a ceramic shear this morning. This shear is used in the composite industry to cut kevlar thread.

Sharpening a shear like this isn't difficult, you just need to know what angle to use and how to properly deburr it (the most important part). I'll be doing a write up on the steps I used in next months On The Edge Newsletter.
