Default Jiffy Stealth Ran aground

Can anyone suggest a good place in the Calgary area to get my Jiffy stealth stx blades sharpened. Buddy knew exactly where to drill Wasn't the 10 ft he claimed; it was 2. Oh well.
Thanks

I did the same thing at the newell derby. the water went from 10ft to 3 feet deep in about 6 feet. oops. anyways, I just sharpened them by hand with a course file. It took some time but I managed to get it sharpened pretty decent. First hole out that weekend.... hit skeg. thankfully it never dulled it again.

Belt sander with a very fine belt. Dont let them get hotter than you can touch. I sharpen mine this way and they cut great.

Jiffy has Jiffy Blade Sharpener. Price is almost the same as a new one. Took out old blade and gave it a try. Sharpened it up really nice. I picked mine up at Fishing Hole. Might have to call around different venues to see if they have them.

Anybody know a place to get Jiffy parts in Central Alberta? Fellow on another site got screwed buying a used unit, and I said I would ask for him. He says he needs motor parts.

Went to Carbide Saw Service in Bowness today and the guy did them for me while I waited for 10 bucks. They look good. Thanks for the tip JTS1
