Sharpening Mulching Blade
"Fleemo" wrote in message
... I'd like to keep my mulching mower blade sharp over the mowing season, though as I understand it, the extra ridges make it more difficult to sharpen. (Last season I took one to a mower shop and it came back duller than it went in.) Would one of those hand-held sharpeners like the one pictured at the link below be effective on a mulching blade? http://tinyurl.com/aku75q For an electric mower with less power, you're more likely to notice a dulling blade than the gas powered mower while operating. The weblink is for an electric mower. If you catch the blade early enough, the tool may be adequate. Otherwise, a bench grinder is the best and quickest solution for sharpening a blade. They do make blade sharpening tools for drills. They are cumbersome to use as you move the tool against the blade in a vice vs moving the blade against a bench grinding wheel. -- Dave CDOs are how we got here. A modified version, new taxes in the future, is how Congress will get us out? |
