Dremel #675 Lawn Mower Blade Sharpener Reviews

• Good for midseason sharpening

  
  By on 2004-04-20
  The Dremel lawnmower blade sharpener works pretty good. But only as a midseason blade sharpener. Be careful sparks fly all over the place with this tool. If your blades are really dull take them to the pros but at midseason this tool will help put the edge back on a mild dull blade. Buy extra 932 grinding stones because you'll go thu them quick.
  
  

• If you've got a file and some boy scout skills use those.

  I got one of these with my dremel tool. It works, but I really think a dremel tool is underpowered for sharpening applications. I spent some time trying to sharpen my shovel with it and finally gave up and grabbed a file and had it finished and a second shovel in less time and with far less noise. Let's face it, neither shovel or lawnmower blades need to be as accurately sharpened as a knife and a file will work handily, cost the same and last longer.
  
  

• An A+ for effort, an F for functionality

  I got this with my Dremel XPR and I was actually looking forward to trying it out, as we have an old hatchet that despretly needs sharpening. I put it on and I went to get the hatchet, and the little slot that the blade goes in was just a little bit too thin. So I finally got it in and I turn on the tool and in a shower of sparks it starts working, but I couldn't get it to move, so now I had a gigantic dent in it, I eventually got the hatchet sharpened without the attachment. and much better, too. I haven't tried it on the lawn mower yet, though. But it doesn't work well on anything besides shovels for me.
  
  

• Good Value

  I'm sorry to see the other poor reviews. I have had this for years, and it's worked great every time. I have a push mower (Toro Super Recycler), single blade. The blade fits snugly into the plastic guide, and it sharpens quite well. No complaints. It saves me a lot of time, being able to sharpen myself, any time of season, as opposed to manually sharpening with a file, or taking somewhere to have it done.
  
  

• Mower blades won't fit into the attachment

  I don't know about blades of single-blade push mowers, but the blades on my Deere L108 riding mower absolutely won't fit into this attachment. They are way too thick - you'd have to snap off the bottom portion of the attachment to even get the grinding wheel to be able to reach the blade.
  
  So don't consider this for riding mower blades, at least the ones on a Deere.
