I'm trying to learn how to sharpen scissors. I'm using a draw-filing technique. I'm not sure where I'm doing right or wrong. Anyone has any input? It's a little better than it was but it's definitely not as sharp as it could be. Gonna try attach some pics.

Good point! I'll try hitting it some more with the finer file or some fine sandpaper on a block. I don't have a stone just yet, or a honing steel.
