Hi,
I do keep an extra blade now .... no need to deliver the entire gouger back to Dan once a year.
I do keep the blade over an oily piece of cotton.
There is no question that when the blade becomes dull - harder cane does not gouge well .... maybe that's what confusing - since it works well on some cane batches and poorly on others.
It's good to know that after 150 pieces of gouged cane means the blade needs to be resharpened.
Thanks to all.
By the way - I have the gouger for almost 16 years.
And my custom blades made by Dan ... which work quite well.
Mark
