Sharpen your scissors at home and achieve professional quality sharpness with unparalleled simplicity! The Scissor Pro Electric Scissors Sharpener Model 500 is a must have tool for those who rely on sharp scissors:

Amazon.com

This home scissor sharpener adds a professional-level edge to a wide variety of scissors from household and sewing scissors, to kitchen shears, to fly-tying scissors without requiring the user to disassemble the blades. The freestanding ScissorPro features two sharpening slots, each containing a curved disc coated with diamond abrasives. One disc offers a fine grind to form a razor-sharp edge during the first stage of sharpening and the other a coarse grind to hone or sharpen at a wider angle and add the finishing touches. A patented construction of magnets and plastic springs that the manufacturer calls Magne-Flex technology align scissor blades in the guides at the correct angle and provide the right amount of pressure and stability for sharpening. Since diamonds are the only element strong enough to truly sharpen and hone a blade, this tool produces long-lasting results, even on double-beveled blades. Plus, the rotating motion of the discs ensures high-quality scissors won’t distemper. Included instructions teach how to properly move scissor blades through the slots for safe, optimum sharpening results. The ScissorPro sharpener plugs into any AC outlet, and is covered by a one-year limited warranty. –Cristina Vaamonde

Have you ever come back from, say, Italy with a large sausage or prosciutto surreptitiously smuggled past customs officials, only to realize that you can only hack at it with a knife once you get home? Or maybe you bought some crusty bread, only to find that you can’t seem to cut off an even slice to save your life? Well, this gourmet electric food slicer will solve those problems and many more. Its control knob allows you to cut paper-thin prosciutto or hearty, 1/2-inch slices of bread with ease and accuracy. The ergonomic design makes the slicer simple to operate. It has a food pusher with a thumb guard to help hold food on the smooth-gliding food tray and rubber feet to keep the slicer stable. The 7-inch stainless-steel blade is very sharp, and the sturdy motor won’t burn out quickly. Most of the parts, including the blade, are removable for hand washing. A stainless-steel serving tray is also included. –Julija Gelazis
