<p>A blade sharpening device (8) easily connectable to a source of rotating power, such as a battery powered hand drill (66), and having a guard member (14), a selectively locatable handle member (16/16') attached to the guard member, and hand-manipulatable means for maintaining the grinding surfaces of the sharpening device at a desired grinding angle and moving it along the length of the blade edge. The guard extends completely over the width of the rotatable sharpening members (10 and 58) and over about eighty degrees or approximately a quadrant (ninety degrees) of their sides and provides an upper, curved surface (18) or a side, flat surface (19), depending on which handle location (30/28) is used, against which the user's hand can be rested for greater control and stability of the sharpener when in use on, for example, a lawn mower blade (62) which is still attached to the lawn mower drive shaft (63) at the underside of the lawn mower housing (64).</p> |
