Abstract:
Apparatus and method for extending the life of a blade cutting edge including a unit having at least two oppositely charged permanent magnet polar surfaces, the unit defining a receptacle area for holding a blade wherein the oppositely charged polar surfaces and the receptacle area are oriented with respect to each other so that a length of a cutting edge of a blade held in the receptacle would be held in close proximity to at least one polar surface, the plane of that blade would be aligned to coincide with strong magnetic lines of force existing between the at least two oppositely charged polar surfaces and the coinciding lines of force would pass through the cutting edge and turn in the blade.
