excellent point JPI because remember in the olden days
long before we had motorized lawn mowers there was only
REEL mowers (vanstals perhaps
) anyway.... those type
mowers cut just like a pair of scissors do... giving you a perfect clean cut edge... but now adays home owners drive that blade
thru anything and soon the edge is round and even at 3000 r.p.m.'s it barely cuts each blade of grass. It only takes 5 to 10 minutes to sharpen a blade but its the last thing people do when it should be the first thing you do.
it makes the job sooo much easier!!
