Hi. just wondering whats everyone's opinon about sharping blades. I saw this on (quilt in a day)site, about the sharping tools at $39 called True Cut Rotary Blade Sharpener.

Worth it or not. new blades here to buy are about $10 or more a blade.

I send all my old blades to lpsharp.com to be sharpened, need at least 5 to ship tho...

I use it and am very pleased with it. Took a couple of times to get on to it, but it works. Won't remove nicks and you need to sharpen before the blade is totally dull. I just sharpen all my blades every so often. (I have multiple rotary cutters.)

Anyone tried the new electric sharpener? According to the video it will take out nics.

I think it's the same one on the GraceFrame site:

I will be interested in the info here..I have been looking but don't want to buy something else that will just gather dust.
