Hand Saw Sharpening

[William Grauer]

Can anyone recommend someone or a service for handsaw sharpening near Annapolis Maryland. I have a crosscut and a rip saw that i would like sharpened. I'll learn one day but don't have time right now.

Thanks

There are a number of mail order places, many of whom have excellent reputations. If you are looking for somewhere local, I would call the local woodcraft and ask if they have someone they can recommend.

The closest store to you is probably this one

If I had no other ideas, it is surely where I would begin.

That said, if you really want to learn, someone in you area may be willing to give you a hand.

If you want to send your saw to be sharpened, well, someone mentioned bad axe, and that is difficult to beat
