Oil Filter Can cutter Blade Sharpening

Sharpening the oil filter cutter wheelBlades can be re-sharpened. We use a belt sander and a fixture that allows the blade to spin as it sharpens. Blade angle is approximately 35 degrees.

Sharpen one edge only until you can feel a slight burr on the opposite side.

Oil filter bladeInstall the sharpened edge outward. Cutting action will now tend to push the filter onto the holder and you get a straighter and cleaner cut.
