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 Thanks for the replies. Just get yourself a bench grinder or a friend with a bench grinder. 3/4hp or more works just great. I found one on Craig's list for $20, but it's only 1/3hp. Is that likely to be a hunk o' junk? For about $45 you can get a hand held grinder, which is what I use and it also comes in handy for other uses. Is that the same as an angle grinder, like the one shown he http://tinyurl.com/ac4olr For an electric mower with less power, you're more likely to notice a dulling blade than the gas powered mower while operating. Yes indeed, my mower is electric, which I absolutely love for my small suburban lawn. No dealing with gas, oil or tuneups! -F ------------------- Just curious why you butchered my reply and added parts of replies from others to it, then expected me to answer questions posed against previous replies injected from others? -- Dave CDOs are how we got here. A modified version, new taxes in the future, is how Congress will get us out? |
