Hey FOH,

 

Hope everyone has a good start of the week. Does anyone know how to sharpen a Colibri Quasar Table Cutter?

I really recommend it. Well build, solid and efficient. Unfortunately, the Colibri company told me there s no way to sharpen the blade.

 

Any of you has an idea on how to do it?

 

Thanks guys

Post a picture.

I have managed to sharpen cigar cutters with Cratex or Matz abrasives and a die grinder. It is pretty easy.

This is a picture of the bit so you know what I am talking about (without the power tool). This Davidoff cutter has been sharpened a few times. None the worse for wear. Very sharp!

This thing is filthy... it travels around in my backpack. Don't hold that against me!!! -LOL

I agree with @PigFish, I do the same thing with a Dremel Rotary tool for cigar cutters, scissors, wire cutters and chisels.  I use the small grinding wheel very lightly when the edge  gets bad or the fine sandpaper rotary tool for fine sharpening work.  Works great on sharpening everything except I do not use it on my good knives where only a fine stone will do to get the right edge.
