Thank you for your video. I have been using the same angle device for grinding my lawn mower blades with a angle grinder using a flipper wheel for over a year now. It makes bringing the blade so easy and I grind off so much less now. Here's what I know about a good sharp blade because my mower is an EGO electric. When I put on a just touched up sharpened blade. I also take a flat file and remove the Burr that is generated on the underside of the blade. This makes one sharp blade. I can cut the grass in the front of my house and it uses less than half of a battery to do that. If I don't sharpen the blade after cutting that and use the blade for the next cut, the amount of energy used is almost double because the blade is not sharp. I find electric devices are better gauges of energy usage than just dumping more gasoline in a gasoline tank. The device to find the angle and hold it at that angle every time makes it so easy and makes your blade last longer and makes grass cutting look way better. That's my experience. Cheers and have a great day!

I've sharpened mine with an angle grinder by eye since angel grinders were invented. Do the same check on the grass... Just like in the video, a nice clean cut every time. I don't think that the grass can tell a different if one side is 28 degrees and the other is 30. Always cleanly cut. My biggest concern over sharpening is to always keep the blade in balance, so I always balance them as well. I just spin them on a round screwdriver shaft leveled off in my vise. Mark one end with a sharpie and slip the blade on the shaft and give er several spins. If that sharpie mark ends up in or near the same position then you need to make one more grinding pass over the end that is lower to the ground after it stops spinning. Continue doing that until that mark ends up in a different position after each spin and you have a perfectly balanced blade that won't ruin your bearings on a rider or your engine on a push mower. 😊

Several issues. First buy American, second aas has instructions you can read "in English". Third, if you can't hold your hand on the blade it's too hot. Keep swapping ends allowing the blade to cool each time. Fourth, there are cheap flap wheels too. Buy high quality flap wheels approx $10-$12 and you can remove more material quicker with less heat. Fifth, get a quality balancer from Oregon. Also the blade must be completely CLEAN, the filth on the blade may throw off balance not just the amount of metal removed. Lastly, if it is out of balance remove metal from the end of the blade (furthest from the center). Why take more metal from the blade edge reducing blade life?

Great mower. Little jealous. Seeing the length of the mowed grass I suggest you get yourself some mulching blades. They will shred the grass to smaller pieces which will fall between the grass and feed your lawn better than this hay on top. Your blunt blades look far better than my JD blades when I go sharpen them, I think it is because your lawn is nicer than my meadow, in which the mower finds pieces of stone that it cuts in half too. Therefore with my blades the tool is sort of useless, I have to grind the chips and dents out and that is better done with the flapdisc flat on the blade, not with the tip only. For the angle of the blades I can only say, the smaller the angle, the sooner they will be blunt because a sharp edge will sooner wear off than the manufacturer angle. But eyeballing it works for me. Your balancing tool looks handy.......but is rubbish, especially when you have an expensive mower like your zero turn. Buy yourself a decent one, like Oregon sells, they are more expensive but really balance, and with the arm you can check if the blade is bent. That way you really get the vibrations out and save on your three spindles. Good aiming of the sparks. 😂

Looks like the angle marking on that device is actually showing your at just about 45°. That will keep it angled enough to be sharp enough to cut grass without being as such a low angle that it will dull easily. The only suggestion I would have is quit cutting towards the edge. Cut away from the edge. That way you're not causing a wire Edge or a burr on the other side of the blade, a slight roll to that edge is not a problem. I would also suggest, if it were me and I have done this in the past. The reason I don't cut grass is because I'm rather reactive to the grass clippings. And I have to wear a respirator if I do so I get severe nosebleeds if I do not. I worked sheet metal for 40 plus years. What I would do is I would take all of the paint off of any part of the blade that had an edge to it. And I would Heat at least the much of the area of The Cutting Edge to a at least a good orange color and then flash heat treated so that it would Harden it. Buy flashing it into some water and watching the blade as it turned blue and then sticking it back into the water so that it wasn't too hard. It will hold that edge considerably longer. I have been able to heat treat metal and cut steel with it and hold an edge for quite some time. These blades are made of sheet metal. Which is a very tough steel but it isn't necessarily very hard. You can Harden The Cutting Edge. Along with the area behind The Cutting Edge and it will hold an edge much longer that way. I wouldn't be surprised if you couldn't hold an edge for a week at least on a mower that you're cutting everyday with maybe even longer.

You ever seen pickup trucks or trailers full of hedge clippings and branches, going to the dump? Do this before you sharpen your blade either at the end of the season or before mowing in the spring. If you have a garden make a pile of all your hedge, shrub, and small tree clippings throughout the mowing season, right next to your garden, or just do that behind your garage or in the corner of your yard. When your done mowing in the fall, Your mulching blade will safely cut all those clippings up to 3/4 inch thick without damaging the blade. Sure it will dull it slightly, but your going to sharpen it again before the next mowing season. I mulch the whole 4x4 foot tall pile in several smaller piles and rake the chips into the garden or leave them lay in the corner of the yard. They will return to the soil and you'll be ready to do it again next year. Oh and lay a tarp next to the vegetation your trimming and simply rake the clippings onto the tarp and grab two corners and drag it back to your pile to dump. It's all about saving time, money and labor folks and this process will definitely do that! Work smarter not harder! 😮😂

In my view and experience, fixating on getting the exact angle on the blade is oversold. It's not that important. What is important is sharpening lawnmower blades often. Tp make that practical, I like to have a separate collection of tools so that everything needed to do the job is together and in one place. That's really the most important thing for me. Mostly I use a file to sharpen my blades If the blade is significantly dinged up, I'll use my bench grinder to fix the damage, and then finish up with a file. Harbor freight has files with handles that are just fine for $3.50. I have one of those files with my other tools for blasde sharpening. My sharpening toolkit also includes the tools needed to remove and install the blade on the mower. I also keep a sandbag handy to hold the mower down to provide easy access to the blade. And I've accumulated three mower blades, so that I can remove a blade and replace it with a freshly sharpened blade in a minimum of time. I can then sharpen the accumulated blades when it's convenient for me to do so. I use my metalworking vice to hold the blade while filing it. These are my methods for efficiently having a sharp blade on my mower. The LEAST important of these items is to fixate on having a precisely angled cutting blade. These are my methods and biases. Of course, everyone is entitled to their own.

For heavy grass, we use the roughest grit practical, and we also emplace "teeth" into the blade, using a file, to create more coarseness. This is similar to the concept of Ginzu knife blades, and military combat blades. Such blades are self-sharpening. Also we do some simple hardening using a torch. These blades will last for weeks before re-sharpening is required. Any contractor who grinds his blades daily is an idiot.

How'd he mow top and bottom of a blade of grass?

Tip was the previous week with a dull blade. That's why it was brown and shredded. Bottom was the cut off of what's grown since.

Adam, I'm cringing every time you run your fingers up and down and around those freshly sharpened blades.

What you have is a nock-of of "All American Sharpener: The All American Sharpener is American made with life time guarentee.

Way more complicated and expensive than it needs to needs to be. All you need is the grinder with a good 1/4” wheel, a wide tip sharpie and a bit of patience. And if you really want to add the finishing touch, a cut off wheel and a good wide bastard file, though not necessary.

I find interesting that you mentioned that the blades need a particular angle but you never said what angle that is

30 degrees

whats the longest blade you can sharpen?
@TKCL6 ай бұрын
That's a good question, these are for a 72 inch mower and I still feel like I have room to go for longer ones.

Have you look at the meg mo style blades? I just seen a video on this style. Meg mo is very expensive. Not sure its worth the money.
