i use an agressive rattail file and do them by hand. it offers the best control and you only take off the material you need to get it back to sharp without gouging out chunks of material.
if they are really bad, i use an angle or bench grinder. but, then again, they shouldn't be really bad unless you out brush hogging with your mower. i mow at 3-4" and rarely hit a rock and only the occasional limb. you should police your mowing area before mowing and you won't have much grinding to do. amp

As mentioned I use put them in a vise (another HF great buy - $60 normaly but with coupon it was $29) and follow the original angle. I have tried using a stand grinder but it didnt offer the flexibility of the hand grinder in getter the angle i wanted.. Brian

to keep the blades from moving i use a blade holder i got at Lowes that works pretty good.. I have tried the block of wood trick, but everything you let off the pressure the wood would drop free.. here is a link to what I have http://www.sportys.com/acb/showdetl....=4&test=testpl The worst part is finding a place on the deck so it can be mounted..

Does anybody have the built in angle adjustment? makes it sound simple to get the right angle and not unbalanced.

Harbor Freight Tools - Quality Tools at the Lowest Prices They are not cheap, but my bush-hog required my nuts to be torqued to 650 ft-lbs. To get them loose the first time I had to have a friend come over and help break them loose. 3/4" breaker bar and a 5' pipe. Each nut snapped loose and my friend ended up sitting on the ground. Wedge

I always use a disk sander to address deep nicks but you always dress the edge with a cold file. Doesn't matter what the edge is on. That is the way to do it
