Make sure the back of the accessory is not tightened by the wheel.

Long term review The mount works for scissors, the only problem I have found is when the scissors have a deformed shape of some sort where the clip holds them in place causing the scissors not to sit straight in the mount. Therefore, when sharpening, it is easy to get a different angle on one end of the blade than on the other end of the blade.

Pros
  • The Tormek SVX-150 Scissor Attachment is an accessory compatible with all Tormek sharpening systems. (Sharpening system sold separately).
Cons
  • Damaged

Be sure to work with the existing angle of your scissors!

I had about a dozen scissors together to sharpen, ranging from hair clippers to trimming scissors to large fabric scissors, when my Tormek SVX-150 scissor accessory arrived. Tormek suggests that the most common blade angle is 60 degrees. I checked and only one of my shears had that angle; in fact, there were quite a few different angles. I tried to match the existing angles in each case and the attachment worked very effectively. All scissors are a pleasure!

Pros
  • Note: Some scissors and scissors may require disassembly for sharpening due to handle or blade angles.
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Nice edge on all the scissors I've sharpened so far.

I used it to sharpen about 20 pairs of scissors. This 20 includes two grass shears and two hedge trimmers. A nice edge on everything I've sharpened so far. It's not, I repeat, it's not brainless "stick to a rock and you're done". I thought I ruined the first tailor's scissors I sharpened. The back rail slipped and I messed up the corner. Took a break. Went back and finished the bad angle full length then sanded the right angle while following the guide. The owner was happy. She said they cut…

Pros
  • With two clips to securely hold a variety of shears and hedge trimmers in different sizes.
Cons
  • Quick Guide
