Those blades are self sharpening; they never need externally sharpened. Ever. Sharpening service for Norelco blades? That's funny. Mine last about 30 years. They just wear down gradually but remain sharp. :) --- sam | Sci.Electronics.Repair FAQ: http://www.repairfaq.org/ Repair | Main Table of Contents: http://www.repairfaq.org/REPAIR/ +Lasers | Sam's Laser FAQ: http://www.repairfaq.org/sam/lasersam.htm | Mirror Sites: http://www.repairfaq.org/REPAIR/F_mirror.html Important: Anything sent to the email address in the message header above is ignored unless my full name AND either lasers or electronics is included in the subject line.

Mine last about 30 years. They just wear down gradually but remain sharp. :) Au contraire, mon ami. I have several 3-head Norelco shavers with different versions of the blades and both have not kept them sharp with use; I have had to use a fine flat stone to 'hone' the blades which restores them enough for perhaps a few months of use before additional treatment is needed. I had previously been under the impression that they self-sharpened. Michael |

The first one died from dropping it on the floor repeatedly. The housing came apart. |

I had previously been under the impression that they self-sharpened. I went through a set of heads about every three years, where the grill wore till it cracked. No matter how I cleaned them, they didn't last. Of course I had a VERY tough beard back then. I couldn't get through a single shave on one double edged blade. I had to shave three times a day while I was in the US Army, and went through four or five blades most days. Man, was I ever glad to get out of basic training! -- Service to my country?

I shaved once a day, every morning, when I was in the Army and for many
years afterwards.Nowadays I let my beard grow for a few months and then I bush hog it with my electric hair clippers.No more razor burn for me! cuhulin |
