With a HORL® Sharpener, it is in your own hands to keep your HORL® Scissors razor-sharp at all times. You can sharpen the scissor blades easily with the ceramic honing disc. For boundless sharpness with every cut.
One movement two blades
Thanks to their spring-loaded quick-release, you can unleash the magic of the HORL® Scissors with a single movement. After overcoming a slight resistance, the scissor halves easily separate – without needing any tools.
Perfectly positioned
A technical masterpiece is integrated into the design: Thanks to three perfectly aligned contact surfaces, the halves of HORL® Scissors stand by themselves at an optimum 45° grinding angle. Without any angle support.
100% sharpness along every millimetre
The spring-loading of the quick-release provides dynamic tensioning of the scissor blades that produces a perfect cut along their entire length. For an unmatched cutting experience, day after day.

The HORL® cross-hatch grind offers you a level of sharpness only previously possible with high-quality kitchen knives. You can also go even further – with our whetstones from fine to ultra-fine.

Answers to the most frequently asked questions.
Questions and Answers
Can I sharpen scissors with the HORL Sharpener?
Our sharpeners are mainly suitable for sharpening kitchen knives and HORL® Scissors. Due to the sometimes wide differences in grinding angles and geometries, the sharpening of other kinds of scissors or tools like scythes are not recommended.
How frequently do I need to sharpen my HORL Scissors?
This depends on how much you use them. If regularly used for very fine cutting, we recommend you sharpen them when necessary. You can detect whether your scissors need sharpening by carefully running a cotton swab over the cutting edges. It is time to resharpen if any fibers are pulled out.
Can I use HORL Scissors if I am left-handed?
Yes, HORL® Scissors are ergonomically designed for use by left-handers as well. Although it is true that they do deliver optimum cutting performance when used in the right hand.
What materials can be cut with HORL Scissors?
HORL® Scissors are best suited for use with textiles, paper, packaging, foils and other soft plastics. The tip is ideal for making fine cuts. For harder materials, it is best to use the cutting edge closer to the joint. Never try to cut metal, wood or wire – these can damage the scissors and would invalidate the warranty.
How do I separate the scissor halves?
Grasp the handles of the scissors with both hands and open them to a wide angle of 115°. You will then feel some resistance to opening further – carefully overcome this and the two halves will separate. To guard against injury, never try to divide the scissors with one hand.
