Default question about lawnmower blade noise

Hi,
I have a sears self propelled walkbehind mower. I've hit
bricks, sticks, etc, and it works fine. However I hit
a large stick the other day, and when I push down
on the handles to raise the front wheels, [to turn a corner]
it makes a loud racquet, like the blade is hitting something
slightly. Is that just a bent blade or could it be the shaft?
Is there a way to tell? *Plus do I have to get the sears
blade or will any 22" blade work?

thx

blades have different bends in them, even if it's the right size.
