5 out of 5 stars Awesome   November 17, 2008
Don Keyhotay (Yorktown, VA)
This is a great product. The sharpening instructions where very easy to understand, and after I figured out that the hand crank could be replaced with a 1/2 inch chuck electric drill, I was able to sharpen my used, garage sale mower in about 5 minutes.

David C. Haas (Fayetteville, NY USA)
This product is the standard kit for sharpening push reel lawnmowers manufactured by the American Lawn Mower company (a.k.a. Great States mowers). It does the job of sharpening the blades as expected. With this kit, I sharpen the five blades on the mower in about ten minutes.

4 out of 5 stars Sharpen your reel mower   October 18, 2008
J. Thorne (Indiana)
I have a Craftsman reel mower thats about 30 years old. It wasn't used for 18 years and the blade needed sharpened. I came across this sharpening kit and even though its for American Lawn Mower brand reel mowers it worked fantastic for mine. The handle to spin the blade backwards didn't work like it would for American Lawn Mower brand ones, but with a little modification it worked great. The blade is now extremely sharp and shiny. Cuts the grass cleanly and smoothly. It will last you several sharpenings. For the few times you need to sharpen your blades, I would guess it will last me more than 5 years.


4 out of 5 stars LetbThe Mower Do The Work!   October 12, 2008
Allen L. Puffenberger (Reynoldsburg, OH)
This is a recent purchase, but I had used it in the past and was delighted with what an excellent job it did. My mower has been caught up in the system-the seller neither shipped it nor responded to my enquirers. Amazon closed the order now and will arrange credit toward another purchase. Under Order status, they indicated that I shoud have received within the projected time frME


5 out of 5 stars A definite necessity   October 1, 2008
Kim Chimerie
This sharpening kit is a definite necessity for reel mower users. The directions are easy to follow, and it makes sharpening the blades easy and convenient. I was brand new to reel mowers, and had never seen a anyone sharpen or use one before, but I had no problems with this kit at all. Using this kit, I have been getting a great cut.
