Find a local machine shop and have them re-sharpened, or they may be two sided. The ones on my Salco are.

How you like that chipper? I'm still looking for one.
The BX 42 looks a little big for my BX23S

The knife s are still good,I didn’t check if the other side was used
Just plan ahead with it don’t want to wait till is too late
Have a lot of chipping to do probably will need re sharpening down the road or use the other side
I find out that bx42 blades will not fit bx40
Looks like would cost me 200 for one blade
