CLIPPER BLADE SHARPENING STANDARD (A5 snap on style)
Sharpening is done on factory calibrated equipment. Known as hollow-ground, this method allows more pressure at the tips of the blade teeth, thus eliminating dragging and jamming of hair. Blades will cut smoother & stay sharp longer. Blades are disassembled, cleaned, and then checked for worn parts. After sharpening, they are dipped in a blade wash, oiled, reassembled and checked for proper tension and alignment.
Four Blades or Less $20 each*
Five Blades or More $16.50 each*
*Blades must be in suitable condition for sharpening. Price excludes replacement parts and return shipping costs.
Customers who send 10 or more blades receive a free Blade Carry Box with their first sharpening service purchased. NORMALLY $6.00 each!
NOTE: We do not guarantee how long a resharpened blade will last as this is subject to many usage factors outside of our control. We do guarantee however, that all blades are thoroughly tested for proper functioning before being returned to the customer. Any issues with blade or scissor sharpening must be reported to The Clipper Shop within 7 days of receipt otherwise resharpening or repair costs will be incurred by the customer.

DID YOU KNOW?
Clippers need to be regularly maintained. Here are some useful professional groomer tips:
Clipper Blade Sharpening
Maintaining pet grooming clippers ensures clean cuts, protects your pet's skin, and extends tool lifespan. Neglected clippers pull hair, overheat quickly, and harbor bacteria.
Why Maintenance Matters
How to Maintain Your Clippers
1. Clean After Every Use
2. Lubricate Constantly
3. Cool Down Hot Blades
4. Store Safely
Proper maintenance of a pet dryer might not be the most glamorous part of grooming, but it plays a critical role in safety, efficiency, and overall pet care. Whether used in a professional grooming salon or at home, a well-maintained dryer ensures consistent performance while protecting both the animal and the user.
First and foremost, regular maintenance is essential for safety. Pet dryers operate using electrical components and high-velocity airflow, which can become hazardous if neglected. Accumulated hair and debris can clog vents and filters, restricting airflow and causing the motor to overheat. In extreme cases, this can lead to equipment failure or even fire risks. Routine cleaning of filters, vents, and hoses significantly reduces these dangers and keeps the dryer functioning within safe temperature ranges.
Beyond safety, proper upkeep directly impacts performance. A clogged or poorly maintained dryer loses efficiency, resulting in weaker airflow and longer drying times. This not only slows down grooming sessions but can also cause discomfort or stress for pets, especially those sensitive to noise or prolonged handling. Clean, well-functioning equipment allows for quicker, smoother drying, improving the overall grooming experience.
Maintenance also extends the lifespan of the equipment. Pet dryers represent a financial investment, particularly for professionals who rely on them daily. Neglecting basic care—such as removing hair buildup, checking for worn parts, and ensuring proper storage—can lead to frequent breakdowns and costly repairs. In contrast, consistent maintenance helps prevent unnecessary wear and tear, maximizing the return on investment.
Hygiene is another important consideration. Pet dryers can harbor bacteria, dander, and allergens if not cleaned regularly. This is especially concerning in environments where multiple animals are groomed. Proper sanitation helps prevent cross-contamination and supports a healthier grooming space for both pets and humans.
Finally, maintaining a pet dryer reflects a broader commitment to responsible pet care. Animals depend on humans to provide safe and comfortable environments, and even small details—like the condition of grooming tools—contribute to their well-being. A clean, reliable dryer reduces stress, minimizes risk, and ensures that grooming remains a positive experience.
In short, proper pet dryer maintenance is not just about keeping equipment in working order; it’s about safety, efficiency, hygiene, and care. Regular attention to these tools supports better outcomes for pets, owners, and professionals alike.
