It seems that it's getting harder and harder for me to cut wire with ordinary side cutters. I know the solution is to get "real" wire cutters, but my question is, do side cutters get dull, or am I just getting weaker?  I noticed the same thing with needle nose pliers with a cutter at the throat. If they are getting duller, is there a way to sharpen them?
