to sharpen blades, however.

Get the Dremel adaptor and do it yourself in minutes for pennies.


I'm leery of using anything motorized, even a Dremel. My father always
used a file, flat ******* follwed by a mill, anything motorized might heat
up the metal too much and cause the blade to lose temper won't it? I've
only used a grinder (4") on a 8' bush hog, which still took an hour.

They do make rather easy to use guides for sharpening. A five dollar guide
with a three dollar file and five mineuts of time... bada bing, sharp
teeth. Here's some pages that speak to this sharpening method:
