Who Sharpens Manual Reel Mowers?
Where did you get that mower? I'd like to have one.

Hi Folks,
I have an old manual push mower, the kind with the whirling
reel-shaped
blades. I enjoyed using it to do my relatively small front yard
for
exercise, back when the blades were sharp.
Is there anyone who still sharpens this kind of mower's blades in
the
Morrisville or Cary vicinity? I'd be willing to take it further
out if
necessary.
I like this mower because the blades didn't actually scrape
together;
they were precise enough to pass just close enough to shave the
grass
without touching. It's quiet. I understand they still use this
type to
cut golf course greens.
I've tried adjusting them, but they're too uneven to cut cleanly
anymore.
Thanks for any pointers!
