Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can the blades be flipped for a fresh edge? A: Yes, these blades are four-sided, allowing you to rotate them to a new edge before needing professional sharpening.

Q: Is this shear suitable for stainless steel? A: While rated for 16-gauge mild steel, it is recommended to shear 20-gauge or thinner for stainless to prevent excessive blade wear.
