Rick’s Tip
Before you sharpen ice auger blades, inspect each blade thoroughly. Most of the calls I receive regarding blades not cutting ice properly after they have been sharpened are due to the customer breaking through the ice and hitting the ground. Keep in mind, however, that just because the blades hit the ground does not mean they are ruined. I have sharpened such blades and they work fine, but in some cases the blades are bent. If you notice the blade has bent, there is nothing you can do to fix or sharpen that blade. If the blade doesn’t appear to be bent, contact the customer and ask them if they still want to have the blade sharpened and tell them you cannot guarantee the blades will cut. Most of the time the blades will cut perfectly, but in some cases they will not cut at all. This approach allows the customer to make the decision and you don’t lose any profits for your time sharpening the blade.
