Send your Ginghers to the factory in Greensboro, NC...you'll need to Google for the address unless you kept the box they came in. Gingher will sharpen them for very little (or it may be free, IDK) and they are like new!

Anyway, last time I visited the Quilt and Sewing Expo in Atlanta last October I took my Gingher 8" dressmakers to be sharpened. They really did a terrible job and now the scissor points do not meet at a point. And they aren't really sharp anymore either. My advise....don't go to the booth that sharpens scissors at those events....they don't do a good job and charge too much!
