Hey bunny slayer,I'm from Beaver County. Send them to Fish 307 Com. It's a sponsor of Ice Shanty. You can ask for your own blades back or exchange. $12.00.per set and $4.95 shipping. You can send  up to 3 sets and the shipping is still the same $4.95. They come back use as good as new. I learned the hard way and took blades to places that said they could do them,well they can't.

I bought a kit for sharpening my auger blades.  You don't sharpen them like a knife.  You can pick up a kit for about the same money most places charge to sharpen them right.

I have always sharpened my own on a good stone. Just follow the original angle of the blade and try not to get them "really dull". Some augers need a shim under the blade also, don't over look this!!

PS: Only hone one side, if you hone the bottom, just toss them for a new pair.

I began using the Works Sharp system.  Fine belt.  Worked like a charm
