Default Shredder options

Hi,

Can anyone make suggestions about getting a replacement garden shredder?

I seem to be generating a lot of woody material and I want to shred up
to 1.5" diameter cuttings. Anything larger I use for log fires.

My current shredder is an Atika that has blades in it. These seem to get
blunt pretty rapidly, and are difficult to resharpen - they do have two
sides and can be turned around.

When it's working, the shredder is fine, but seems to clog with tedious
regularity.


And there seems to be no source of replacement blades!

In a Which survey The Bosch ATX Rapid 2200 came out on top (available
larger Homebase ). I marked it down to buy when my Atika gets too annoying.
