I've had them sharpened once and they still cut like new. My nippers are Mundial and they are great
Actually, I have read that you can do a quick sharpening of scissors by folding aluminum foil several times and cutting through it. I might try this on a pair I don't really care for to see if it works before using it on my favorite pair.
