While we are on the subject, can someone try to describe the entire process
for sharpening a mower blade?

When I get a new blade, I know what it looks like, but I don't know the
correct "approach" to get it sharp.

I use a small bench grinder, and I hold the blade up to the grinder, but
usually I feel that I am grinding off more blade than I need. It seems
that knowing the correct "angle" to hold the blade to the stone is the key,
but for the life of me I can't seem to get the hang of it.


And no, this is not a troll.
