woodworker, when DO you need to get your blade sharpened? How do you
know? You'll know. When take a bit more effort pushing the wood, the cut is not
as smooth as you remember it, you get a bit of splintering, or you just cut
a couple of nails in half.

I sent a few blades to Ridge Carbide Tool in New Jersey. Two came back as
good as new, the third one better than new. Although none were made by
Ridge, they sharpen any brand.

What did they charge you?
