Default Sharpening my Linesman pliers

Looking for any good suggestions for sharpening my linesman pliers.
They are kliens and due to my absent memory I've lost enough pairs to
put me on the defensive when it comes to purchasing a new pair.

I do find them invaluable in stripping wires, cutting flex, etc... So
any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Forget it. Short of buying a new pair, if you have the time, try
poking around in the tool bin at a pawn shop. Sometimes one can find
Klein's for a cheap price that just have some surface rust on them, in
otherwise good shape. Just out of curiousity, what are you doing with
your Klein's, as it takes even a construction electrician a long time
to wear out a set of Klein's?
