I took three blades into a local shop to have sharpened. They did not work when I got them back, well one did for long enough to 1/2 clip horse. The other two not at all and I was not clipping winter hair off either, this filly had been clipped in the late fall so did not have that thick winter hair. I asked them about the blades, they said bring them back they had trouble with their wheel and had it fixed. I took them and 6 others to them the other day and just got them back. 8 of nine will not work at all and only the #50 cuts. I put in a brand new blade and it worked just fine.
Any ideas on what they are doing? Will my blades even be to be any good to have someone else to sharpen them? Two of the blades were new and never sharpened before, several of the others had been sharpened one time. The rest mininal use/sharpening as well.
I have a new flipper/felts in my clippers and have no problem clipping with brand new blades, I use oil and blade wash as needed. But of course these that just got sharpened would not cut at all, so nothing was used on them to make the work.
