Default Who Sharpens Manual Reel Mowers?

I haven't seen an answer yet but you might try sharpening them yourself.
Start with a ******* file and finish with a mill file, would probably only
take about 10 minutes.

Don't let anyone use a generic grinder unless the blades are damaged.


Thanks.

When I was looking for them yesterday, I bumped into a page that says
that at least some of these mowers are designed to sharpen themselves...
If you pay for a kit.

This may be more than you wanted to know:

So now all I need is a crank and some lapping compound!
