265946 Nichael Cramer <nichael@s...> 2018‑05‑26 Leonard Lee noch einmal [was: Sharpening Scissors
Since this doesn't deal exclusively with scissors, I'll branch off 
another title...

...but this topic --and this fine May morning-- seems like a perfect time
to drop in a (totally unsolicited) plug for Leonard Lee's[*] magnificent
"The Complete Guide to Sharpening"[**].

I know many [most?] folks on this list is familiar with this book.
but this really is the bible for such things and it can't hurt to bring
it up once again. Completely galoot-friendly in its approach,
and exhaustive in its approach.

It even has detailed instructions for sharpening/fettling tweezers, 
for pete's sake!

[* I.e. Leonard Lee of Lee Valley Tools fame.]
