 I don’t give this Blade a lot of Hope. It wasn’t very good the day it came out of the factory thankfully I’ve not seen a lot of this before

As many of you are aware, I have spent the last year dealing with prostate cancer.

I’ve had a course of radiation therapy and am now on a course of medication as follow up.

I have had to slow down the sharpening but thankfully I’m feeling a lot better and am getting ready to roll.

So if you have sharpening or clipper servicing please give me a call or a text on 07939363800.

Looking forward to working with you and your grooming gear again 👍😊

Many thanks, Andrew.

If you’re heading to Groomfest this Sunday, make your way to the Abbfabb Grooming Scissors stand….Sian will be on hand with her fantastic range of grooming scissors and you can take the opportunity to see her brilliant book about scissors.

I will be there to offer my sharpening services for your scissors and clipper blades….but get there early if you want same day service. If you’re not in a tearing hurry I can bring your sharpening home and return to you asap when it’s finished.

See you there 😊

Please have a read 👍😊

Dog grooming equipment is costly, but aside from your grooming training course fees, your tools of work are the most important investment you will make.

A British BL 18-inch Mk 1 naval gun being moved into the Imperial War Museum in Crystal Palace, London. This gun is a wooden mock-up, but the real thing weighed 150 tons. The Mk 1 was the largest British naval gun ever made, and the second largest ever, with only Japan's later 18.1 inch guns surpassing it. The guns were designed for HMS Furious, but were later installed on monitors in single-gun turrets. One of these guns has the record for the longest-range Royal Naval engagement when it fired on German positions inland 33,000 meters away during WWI.

Yamato had this gun beat, with 18.1 inch guns: https://navalhistoria.com/the-battleship-yamato/
