Why does the edge on a lawnmower blade only go part way ?
Hey Guys,
I'm in the middle of fixing an MTD yard bug - not a highly rated lawnmower, but the price was right (free) and it has electric start (request of Wife, who might, someday, mow the lawn =)
I have the thing apart, and I noticed this - its like every other lawnmower blade I've ever seen - the "sharpened" part of the blade only extends from each tip to about 5 or 6 inches in from each tip.
There is about 2 feet of unsharpened blade - It wouldnt take me and Mr. Dremel more than 15 or 20 minutes to sharpen the rest of the blade - My question is - Why didn't the factory do this from the beginning ?
-John
