Unfortunately, for such a handy product, the sharpness of the blades does not last beyond a few uses. Even filing the blades to re-sharpen them does not work. Be prepared to replace the blades often, which are not cheap. It's a shame the quality of the blades is so poor--probably the cheap metal used--because it damages the reputation of Black and Decker.

While it is a shame I cannot sharpen the blade on my trimmer, the replacement is as easy to install as a lightbulb. Four screws out, replace blade, four screws in---that's it! Very simple!

This has been a great product. Haven't had to replace the blades yet but if they are as good as the orginal blades, I'll be using the shears for quite some time.
