Sharpening multi tool blades

[JayJay1978]

I'm sick of buying new blades every few months, I notice there is an American product called sharp hog or sharp pog which is a series of grinder disks with spacers mounted in a cordless drill.

I cant find it on ebay but I think I'm going to try a dremel disk and see how I get on, surely I can use them for rough floorboard cutting if nothing else?

have you looked at saxton blades fairly good and not too expensive
blades are consumables
they need to be cut at the correct angle to work efficiently

I'd try a needle file before anything else.

i have tried many methods but non work well
maybe another cutting tool will be more efficient

i suggest the task in hand may require a different can you tell us the task so we can suggest the best tool ??

Hi all

The task is general abuse from a plumber with a 350w fein, cutting off old skirtings, cutting through copper pipes (hitting wall while i cut), plunging into chipboard etc.

keep your worn out blades separate
cut to within 3mm off the wall or obstacle then finish with the old blade
wood blades work well on copper

A number of the blades I've used appear to be induction hardened rather like hardpoint saws - and we all know that they cannot be resharpened at all

Ive touched up hand hardpoint saws with one of these and also have a set for them . https://birco.co.uk/products/silver...MI3Z2i0_Hr2AIVqL3tCh1L4QVJEAQYBSABEgLCkfD_BwE
As for multitool blades, the teeth can be crudely recut with a 1mm stainless cutting disk which are ok for rough/ demolition work but doesnt last long before needing to be done again

Well the Romans a sponge on a stick for that purpose. Does that count as reusable loo paper?

Obviously not vegans, then, and posh, too. What's wrong with dock leaves I ask you? Or hadn't they been invented back then?
