I think this is true. I've heard that if someone has sharpened them incorrectly, they can't be fixed, but I don't know that for a fact.

I just had a pair of Wiss sharpened at JAF and for $7.50 they did a perfect job but mine was not damaged. You could take them there on their next sharpened day and talk to the man yourself. I had these scissors about 45 years and this was the first time I got them sharpened. The sharp point was always good and he sharped it well. I am very pleased.

I only let Gingher sharpen my Gingher scissors. I have had friends that got into trouble letting anyone else sharpen them. Some have had theirs redone successfully by Gingher and others have not been so lucky.

In the past, I have sent my Gingers back to Ginger for sharpening and it was very successful. However, it seems I heard a year or so ago that Fiskers had bought out Gingers. I haven't tried to send any back to be sharpened since then. I will be interested to learn if the service is still as good.
