Dagging shears find diverse applications, ranging from topiary to everyday shearing and showmanship for animal exhibition. Notably, many bonsai artists utilise these shears for tree shaping. The sharpening of these shears ensures a clean and precise edge, not only reducing effort but also facilitating cleaner cuts and mitigating repetitive hand strain.

Here at Certified Sharpeners, we use CBN (Cubic Boron Nitride) abrasives on our CatraSharp and Tormek T8 machines, enabling us to sharpen powder steel knives to or beyond factory standards.
Most sharpeners cannot work on these steels at all. However, we can — and do so regularly.

At our workshop a few miles north of Shrewsbury we sharpen on a water cooled Tormek T8 equipped with a dedicated plane iron jig, this is instrumental in achieving absolute precision and ensures edge straightness and slight hollow grind on plane irons.
