You can send files and rasps off to be resharpened at a fraction the cost of a new one. I understand people are sending their Brazilian made 49s and 50s to the sharpener so they will be the same quality as an American made one.

I found a deal on a #50 on ebay for $20 shipped, thanks for the heads up from this site. Yesterday I compared my new #50 to a very well used #49. The #50 cut twice as fast. Time to send my old #49 and 50 to Boggs.

+1 on Boggs . I sent them some of mine and they do an amazing job, well worth the money.
