Default Removing blades from my lawnmower

I use a bench grinder. And then balance the blade on a nail. The end
which pulls down gets ground some more. When the blade hangs
horizontal, it goes back onto the mower.

Just curious, do you clamp the blade and move the belt sander, or

vice
versa? Do you sand towards the edge or away from it?

I have been using a file for the last 10 years. It's cheap and

easy, but
I can only get the blade medium sharp with a file.



I put the blade in a vice and take the sander to it. IIRC, it is a
36 grit
belt. I sand away from the edge.
