As someone who has been sharpening mower blades for over 20 years (I used to have a landscaping company called "The Sod Squad"), I swear by this mower blade sharpener. This is because of two reasons: the handle design is very easy to use (no risk of cutting yourself), and the actual design of the sharpener (one carbide side and one guide) is specific to mower blades. The sharpener works very well. Mower blades are not knives, so you don't need to put a bevel on both sides of the blade. You also don't need to get them razor sharp. Instead, a mower blade just has a single bevel, and this is why this sharpener is ideal. It's true that you CAN sharpen your mower blade with a file. But it's way easier and faster to just swipe the blade with this sharpener. ░░░ A FEW NOTES AFTER YEARS OF WORKING ON MOWERS ░░░ 1. If your blade is really old and beat up, you may need to take some of the dings out of it with a file. That will be determined by how many rocks and sprinkler heads that you've hit. 2. While it's tempting to try to sharpen the blade while it's still on the mower, don't. It's way, way easier to take the blade off and sharpen it. Plus, you'll do a better job. 3. If you don't have a bench vise to clamp your blade into when sharpening, just use a couple of 2x4s screwed together to hold the blade in place. 4. If you really want a well-running mower, use a blade balancer like this one: Oregon Lawn Mower Blade Balancer 42-100 . Balancing the blade is not essential for homeowners and few people do this, but it's ideal if you're mowing a lot commercially or just really into having a fine-tuned mower. 5. A razor sharp mower blade is really overkill, because you're just cutting grass. So my advice would be to not obsess about getting a perfectly sharp blade. This sharpener will get it plenty sharp. 6. Regular sharpening, like every season or even twice a season, will keep the blade nice and sharp. If you let it get too dull it'll be hard to sharpen (like after several years). So it's a nice design with the built-in brush and sharpener angle. I strongly recommend it. ................. This product was NOT given to me as part of any promotion.

This tool works really good to sharpen my pruner, and other garden tools
