As you cut grass the blade does and will not wear even
A mower blade, By design will be UNbalanced during operation... The leading edge will be making contact with & cutting grass, that will load that end of the blade... The opposite end of the blade is in an area that has already been cut, or mostly cut. It will have less of a load than the edge that is cutting the bulk of the grass... So you could accurately say that the blade is dynamically Always Very out of balance...
But there will be those that will be Sure that their balancing systems are going to have an effect on this variable state of unbalance... especially if they are using a system that is sold for a lot of $$...
Fortunately balance is Not a very important element in making a lawn mower function & last... :smile:KennyV

Wow, you guys really get stirred up over balancing, more even than sharpening. First time this forum I've seen a hint of profanity in the "***". :smile:
What we need is a cam corder with strobe video set up under the deck during operation to see what the blades are doing.
Next sharpening I will check the blade balance with dried grass-spinach on blade and them after scraped and wire brushed before sharpening to determine role of debris in static balance. I will use my $2.50 balancer (DIY) to detect imbalance down to 1/8 oz.
If we cannot resolve this issue peacefully here I suggest a BALANCE OFF" contest to be held in Kansas . No beer drinking allowed.:cool2:
