Does anyone know any tips/tricks to sharpening clipper blades? I'm talking about the professional style (Wahl, Oster, etc). Thanks.

Just take an ultra-fine benchstone from Spyderco, lay the upper part of the clipper flat on it's surface and make circles with it without pushing down on the part or lifting the part in any way.
Usually not much is needed to give it it's bite again.

We sell clippers on our website, and this is our preferred method.

just to clarify the above poster, you must unscrew the top portion from the bottom portion, then take the top portion and sharpen.
