Do sharpening stones have to be replaced

I have not used this appliance long enough to know that yet, but I presume from the user guide that the diamond wheels are pretty much permanent, and the stropping wheels can be cleaned, but will wear out. Hope this is helpful.

I have had mine a while and I really dont know, it looks possible but for the price I would just get a new one by the time they wear out.

I have not had to purchase a replacement chain yet due to low usage. I usually sharpen my chains.

I would take it to a professional blade sharpener and also purchase a replacement blade.

Yes. I have had this set for about a year and they haven't needed to be sharpened. However, I've had one of the pink chef's knives for several years and it takes sharpening well.

Never ever sharpen ceramic knives yourself. They require a professional. If they are treated well and correctly, they won't need sharpening often and should last for many many years.

Yes you can. I never have, but I know Amazon sells a sharpener for it. I think it's cheaper just to replace the blade then buy a sharpener though. So unless you plan on using it a whole lot.......

Yes you can replace the blade. It comes with a sharpening stone though so replacement is not really necessary unless something terminal happens.

If you were going to replace the blades, you might as well replace the whole thing - it is basically a ton of blades attached to a handle and some wheels, I would go with sharpening it with one of the kits they sell specifically for this kind of mower.

Yes, it will take any Edge Pro compatible stone. If your knives are in decent condition and you just want to bring them back from ok to real sharp then the included stones will suffice. If you intend to do anything more intense than that you should pick up some additional stones sooner rather than later. Google around and you will find lots of alternative sources for stones for Edge pro.

no but knifes have lifetime warranty where they will either sharpen it or replace it

No. As far as I know ceramic knives can't be sharpened, they have to be replaced.

yes. you do have to make sure you are doing everything correctly and consistently. it takes a lot to get the scratches from the prior stone out. if things are not consistent, you'll have mirror edges and a dull blade.

Sharpening/honing stones do wear out over use, but they usually last a long time as long as they're not mistreated or under oiled. Oil is important! I've sharpened 5 machetes an axe and a few knifes and it looks practically brand new still.

The diamond abrasives are imbedded in the moving parts of the sharpener. I have not had the need to use it very much as the knives stay very sharp. The sharpener does a good job but the Shun knives I use it on never get quite as sharp as new. Under normal household use, which included sharpening my mother's and fiends' knives, the abrasives do not need to be changed...so I wouldn't know about the cost. It seems like it'll last many years. I hope this helps.

I have sharpened mine and they seem none the worse for it. I decided they were cheap enough that I could replace it if I ruined it.

Yes, loosen the two screws on the old blade and remove the blades, then replace them with these new blades. You should have no problem at all.

Mine came ready to go. I've used them numerous time and they still don't need sharpening. I've had them looked at by the experts at the rink and mine still don't need sharpening, but it depends on how often you skate. I just love these skates and you can't beat the deal. Hope this helped.
