Benefits

Precision finish…

Most large clipper blades are sharpened on automated machines. Blades for camelids are double ground for a superior edge (if requested). Combs and cutters are sharpened on high-speed grinding wheels by our sharpening experts.

How good is our service?

Good enough that we now sharpen over 50,000 blades, combs and cutters a year.

Cost

Extra Charges

To recondition and/or fix severe rust—$2.50 per set additional charge. (#868801)
Applies to blade sets, combs or cutters that have been damaged by other's sharpening and thus requires extra time on our machine. Also applies to severely rusted blade sets, combs or cutters.
To clean dirty blades or remove light rust—$1.00 additional charge on each piece. (#870100)
Applies to blades, combs or cutters sent to us that show light rust or still have dirt, wool, hair or lanolin upon them.
Double grinding blades/combs for llamas and alpacas—$1.00/per bottom blade of clipper sets and combs only. (#868802)
An edge that works for sheep, cattle and horses often disappoints those clipping or shearing llamas and alpacas. It takes double the grinding and lapping time to get blades and combs "right" for this purpose. It will save you time and hassle in the end if we know your needs and take the time to get them right for you.

Tips

Most common problem?

Failure to lubricate blades and cutters often enough with a #10 white clipping oil.

Why don’t users oil more often?

  1. They assume water (in wet wool) is a lubricant. It isn’t.
  2. They fear excess oil will stain white wool or hair. Prevent this by putting only 3 drops of a white oil on the blade or tips. Run the machine for 3 seconds. Wipe away any surplus oil. Resume work.

Why is rust a concern?

  1. Rusted blades and combs are harder to push through fiber.
  2. Rusted blades/combs/cutters won’t hold an “edge.” Blades are made of high carbon steel. It will rust in hours. The weak acid from your fingers on blade/comb steel will cause rusting within 24 hours. So it’s critical, after every use, to clean blades with hot water, dry and coat them with real oil (not spray-on coolants).

Spray coolants or lubricants?

Coolants lower blade/comb/head temperatures...but they are not lubricants. They do not reduce friction. So always use coolants in addition to, not in lieu of, high-quality oil.

Precautions
Beware—Blades, combs and cutters can be easily damaged (and even ruined) during sharpening by those without proper machines or methods.

Premier is not responsible for keeping orders separate when sending in multiple orders in one box.

Great Job on my old Llama combs and cutters! I was able to shear 6 dirty llamas head to toe with 1 comb and 2 cutters. Even with the last llama, who has very heavy wool, the shears did not pull her fine wool. I have been shearing llamas for over 20 years, wish I would have found Premier sooner. Thanks!
