Threw away $40 on a cheap clipper blade sharpening kit from Amazon last month

The stones were too soft and the guide was useless, just ended up ruining two good blades before I trashed the whole thing - has anyone else had better luck with a specific brand or method for sharpening at home?

Did you try using a higher grit stone afterward or just stick with what came in the kit?

Heat doesn't come from the grit, it comes from pressure and speed.

I mean, maybe it's just me but doesn't anyone worry about the stone's grit wearing down the steel's temper from the heat?
