I tried sharpening once. But between my kids and wife I always manage to hit a rock, or brick, or toy. And that really messes up the blade. New blades are like $20-30, I don’t have to spend time sharpening them, and the old one is 100% recyclable. So I’ll spend $20 to save time.
My town has a small shop that sells mowers and general landscaping equipment, and for a few bucks they’ll also sharpen blades. I just have them do it annually cause I also grew tired of doing it, amd new blades feels wasteful. Maybe you can find a place to sharpen for you cheaply.
Honestly just watched some you tube videos. But after the first time it’s pretty easy. Just change the oil, air filter, spark plug and blade.
If you have a metal file and a vice, you can just sharpen the blade and it will last pretty much forever! Unless that’s what you meant.
