Keep buying these re-sharpen blades at Home Depot figuring I'll get them sharpened !!! Well I have a stack now, I asked the Home Depot specialist, he said no one in Red Deer does!!!
Has anyone had it done??


If so , is it worth it? This blade was $92 plus tax.

Yes its worth it. those blades have decent carbide in them. I get mine done at All blade Canada in Edmonton, be anywhere from 25-45$ per blade depending on how many teeth/chipped or missing. They seem to come back even sharper than new..

There was an old guy named Don that worked for Manus in Edmonton. He had a little machine shop in Mundare, he'd take them home at night, bring them back the next day. he did a great job, charged around $40/blade.

All blades is where we sent are metal skill saw blades. They worked really good after. But if there's to many missing teeth then a new one is cheaper. I can never find the courage to ask him if he sharpened the blade that cut his fingers off lol. Nice guy

I tend to always get my blades sharpend. If you go to lowes they sell a 3 pack of dewalt 10" blades for $60. A wicked deal if they happen to be on sale. Otherwise timber town sharpens them for about $20 a blade. Not sure about in red deer though.

Have you tried exchange a blade.? Higher initial cost but just bring it back and trade for a lower priced exchange.

I sharpen carbide blades, but if you had to ship them it wouldn't be worth it. Should be someone in your area that does.

I used exchange a blade for a long time. I just don't really like the blades. Find there wider then the dewalt and just don't cut as nice.

I used to spend $200 on a blade in my door plant. I could get 20 or more sharpenings out of them.

Found a place in red deer. This and that sharpening. $27 a blade so I'll see how it turns out.
