Auger blade sharpening

[sirsunnyslayer]

Does anyone know if there is someone in the St. Paul area that sharpens auger blades? I just looked at the Strikemaster HSOforum and their getting pretty spendy for an exchange nowdays.

Two things to try, 1st your local bait shop. If they get anything from Ken's Bait Service in Shokapee, they have an exchange program for resharpened blades. Ken's has someone do it for them, but Ken's as far as I know is a wholesaler only, I could be wrong though. 2nd, find a place that sharpens saw blades, knives, scissors, stuff like that and they can probably do it for you. The Lazer blades are expensive no mater where you go due to the pitch and twist of the blade. The ripper blades you can do yourself with a bench vise and a good flat file.
