O.K., interconnect guys,

How many of you have ever tried to sharpen the cut blade for a 66 punch tool?

I've been doing a lot of data and tel cabling lately, and using 66 blocks for the tel. I've got 40-60 station cables on a typical backboard. The standard Harris 66 blade gets dull pretty quick. It's the Scotsman in me, I guess, I just hate to throw away a blade if it can be sharpened.

I'm trying a Harris "Eversharp" blade now, and it's lasting longer than the standard version.

Also, anyone ever tried the Ideal electric punch tool? It runs off of line power (120V). I'm thinking of trying one for the next really big job.

Thanks in advance,

Cliff
