Question 1

How much does Heiniger blade sharpening cost?

Accepted Answer

Heiniger blades start at $14 per standard blade. Specialty blades (5-in-1, horse, oversized) are quoted individually. Bulk orders of 50+ blades receive a 15% discount and the same 2-3 day workshop turnaround. There are no hidden fees and free Express Post return on orders over $100.

Question 2

Which Heiniger blade types do you sharpen?

Accepted Answer

We sharpen Saphir Blades, Saphir Style Blades, Xplorer Blades, Opal Blades, Heiniger Style Cordless, Shearing Combs, Shearing Cutters, plus most other Heiniger variants. Heiniger Saphir and Saphir Style horse clipper blades require careful handling because of their precision Swiss manufacturing. We sharpen them at the original edge angles. Xplorer pet grooming blades and the full shearing-comb-and-cutter range also handled regularly.

Question 3

How long does sharpening Heiniger blades take?

Accepted Answer

2-3 business days in our Gunning, NSW workshop from when your blades arrive. With Australia Post each way, most customers have Heiniger blades back within a week of posting. Express Post return is free on orders over $100.

Question 4

Do you sharpen ceramic Heiniger blades?

Accepted Answer

No. Ceramic blades cannot be reliably re-sharpened and are designed to be replaced. We focus on steel Heiniger blades, which restore beautifully to factory sharpness. If you are unsure whether your blade is ceramic, send a photo and we will tell you before you post.

Question 5

Will sharpening damage my Heiniger blades?

Accepted Answer

No. We sharpen on professional equipment at the original factory edge angles. Switzerland engineering deserves precision sharpening, not aggressive grinding. Most Heiniger blades can be sharpened many times across their life without measurable wear.

Question 6

How often should I sharpen my Heiniger blades?

Accepted Answer

Professional groomers and barbers using Heiniger blades typically sharpen every 4-8 weeks for high-rotation blades, and longer for occasional-use blades. Sharpen before pulling starts, not after. A blade running hot or pulling hair causes pet stress, hand fatigue, and slower work.
