Testimonials

Canada loves the Ez-Vex
I'm extremely delighted with the Ez-Vex system it reproduces the factory edge that the shear has when it is purchased new and these results are accomplished with minimal removal of material from the shear. This is really noticeable when doing color coated shears. Any sharpener that wants to perfect the factory edge should own the EZ-Vex system. With the training that Mike and Pam provide in person, along with the video and outstanding support when out in the field the EZ-Vex system is truly EZ to operate and a must have for any sharpener.

Another Happy Ez-vex customer
Mike, it has been almost three weeks since I spent a day with you showing me how to properly use the EZ-VEX sharpening system. Since then I have been using the EZ-VEX on all convex scissor I sharpen and have had no problems sharpening any of these scissors. As a matter of fact, I believe the EZ-Vex does a better job than the system I was using. I also believe the EZ-Vex is easier on the scissors and will make them last longer.
I have found that by slowing the machine down I can start at the tip of the blade and stop any hesitation marks when starting at the back of the blade. Thank you for the machine and the help. I really believe this is the way scissor will be sharpened in the future. Jim Martin / The Scissor Medic www.thescissormedic.com       1-828-776-9911

Ez-Vex Sharpener from Maine
Hi Mike and Pam,
I have been wanting to write to thank you for the great training I received on the EZ-Vex. I learned so much from your hands-on technique on all phases of sharpening on the EZ-Vex.
I started my business as soon as I returned from your training. I was confident from day one. I was nervous but luckily I remembered all the steps to use to sharpen shears correctly on the EZ-Vex.
I am also thankful for all your assistance you have been giving me on the telephone when I had questions about certain things that came up and needed help.  I am on my way to building my business. I really
enjoy sharpening and see customers happy with my results.  I truly believe the EZ-Vex is the best machine out there. I had done alot of research before purchasing the EZ-Vex. It does everything you
said it would do. I made the right decision by coming to your free workshop to learn how to operate the EZ-Vex and also all the other techniques you thought me about sharpening. I'm looking forward to
adding a new service by getting your Nipper Blade machine. I have found in my research that there is a need to sharpen nipper blades. There are only a few technicians that are offering this service.
Thank you again for introducing me to the EZ-Vex and for your well run training program. You are very kind and enjoyed my visit with you.   Always wishing you the best.  Paul D.  Pro-Sharpening/ From Maine

Review from a Ez-Vex User
Mike, Green Valley Sales & Sharpening would like to thank you and the Clipper Shack for coming out with such a great sharpening system. As you know, I have never sharpened anything in my life. But traveling to Ohio and spending time with you on the Ez-Vex has made my business bloom.
I have gained confidence in my sharpening and in my business since learning to sharpen on the Ez-Vex. I now sharpen in Beauty Salons and in Pet Grooming stores that were using flat hone and vertical hone sharpeners who many of them had over 10 plus years of experience. My clients like the way their shears perform, and they also like the fact that when using the Ez-Vex I remove very little metal saving years of life on their scissors. The Ez-Vex is Fantastic for those long shears and color coated shears.
I now sharpen for the students at our local beauty school. The Schools director was so impressed with my sharpening skills on the Ez-Vex, that the school stopped using the guy that had been their sharpener in the past. I'm proud that your product has allowed me to be able to compete with sharpeners who have many years of experience. This machine is exactly what any novice needs to start his sharpening business.
Thanks for all your support  Gary / Green Valley Sales & Sharpening / 702-400-0106

Canada Happy Again
Hi Mike and Pam,
Just a quick note, one again Mike thanks for all the advice you have given me over the phone I really do appreciate it. Today I was called in to one of the top salons in the city to do a couple of sharpenings. After completing the job the owner informed me that I would be getting all the work from his three salons. That's a great client to have once I tell people that I'm sharpening for this High-end salon I'm sure it will be very beneficial in obtaining new clients.(As you said it will take some time to build a customer base, all the work that I have done so far I have received nothing but positive feedback and this is all because of the help that you have given me and the fantastic job that the EZ-Vex sharpening system does. Thank You Once again. Ed. / from Canada Ez-Vex

Dear Pam & Mike,
I can’t explain in words how grateful I am with the Clipper Shack. Anyone looking to start a sharpening business should seriously consider buying their equipment from you all. Your nipper sharpening and shear sharpening systems are both one of a kind and extremely effective. Your customer service and support is exceptional.    The nipper machine is small, light weight, and mobile. The mechanism to adjust the nipper and sharpen it is extremely effective and quick. I highly recommended it. It allows you to service all nail salons quickly and effectively. The EZ -Vex shear sharpening system is outstanding. Just like the nipper machine, it’s small, light weight and mobile. The learning curve to use the system is the best in the industry to sharpen shears.    As much as I like all your sharpening systems, your customer service and support is exceptional. Being a novice in the industry, I was heavily disadvantaged out in the field. Pam and Mike quickly got me up to speed on industry information and standards. They truly made me feel I was part of the Clipper Shack team. Pam and Mike fielded all my questions without exception (even weekends). They truly made a difference for me. Thanks for all your support. Sincerely,  Juan Plaza / The Cutting Edge / Orlando, FL

Washington Loves the Ez-Vex
Mike and Pam
 Looks like spring is trying to happen here in Washington.
The Ez-Vex is a dream to use.   I’ve attached some photos of my take on your toolbox suggestion. Thanks. Works like I thought of it myself.  Just about one month until I retire, in the meantime I’m going out prospecting on Saturdays for sharpening work  . My son says it’s like being a stripper, you go into their place, do your dance, they applaud, then you collect the cash and your off to the next party. "LOL" I know enough not to take off my cloths of course, but my working on the Ez-Vex draws them like a cat to a wiggling finger. At one salon, I had three stylists standing around watching me work. All of them talking at the same time about what they were doing later that night.
Thanks again for the training and all of the extra training on everything else and the hospitality. I wish I had more time to spend walking around your farm. I’m really interested in the history of the places I go. Your farm is interesting, and I got some great shots of the rock wall and the original home, the goats too.   Bob Worley in Washington State.

New Mexico is Pleased with the Ez-Vex
Hello Pam & Mike,
I wanted to write to you more than a month ago. But I have been so busy as you know. The demand for a quality (shear) sharpening is high here. I first talked to you Mike on the phone in December of 2010. I was not even thinking of sharpening shears & scissors as a business. I wanted to learn something about sharpening so that I could sharpen my wife's shears . But once I decided after looking into all the type of ways & different sharpening systems, and having knowledge of metals & machinery, along with you being so helpful & explaining to me everything I needed to know about creating a high quality sharpening. I ordered the Ez-Vex. I received the Ez-Vex on Jan. 11th 2011 . I picked up my wife's shears (3-pairs) which no-longer cut because of previous bad sharpening’s. I sharpened them on the Ez-Vex , ( She's still cutting hair with them today) . The Ez-Vex paid for itself and the trip out to see Pam & You after only three weeks. After the confidence you get from doing a professional sharpening it's that easy to get out there and I'm still a greenhorn. The customer service and help I got from You &Pam is amazing. You helped me (Big) to become successful. It makes me feel good to know you. Thank You

Nipper Sharpening System Testimonials

(See what Bonika says on their Bonika Blog 2008)
I was super impressed with Mike Borsch nipper sharpening machine. It is simple, but effective in correcting all type of nipper problems. We will be talking by phone tomorrow about including his machine as part of the equipment line we will be providing to sharpeners. We hope to have me thoroughly trained and ready to sell and train on the machine by the Sharpeners Jam. I was really impressed by Mike's nipper knowledge

(see what Jim sharps blog said in 2007 on the topic of the Nipper Sharpening system)
As for the teaching seminars, Mike did great! His Nipper Sharpening Machine is easy to use and well worth the investment if you're looking at targeting that market! Mike Borsch of Clipper Shack has developed a Cuticle Nipper Sharpening Machine that works great I had the chance to see this machine first hand when I went to California. It is simple, fast and does a first class job! I was impressed!!!
