Hard ware stores offer this service and is not expensive. I have try ed this and it is not worth the aggravation.<br><b>References : </b><br> I agree with Lizard, you can do it but you may also need a file guide to do this.

As the saw cuts on both the forward and back strokes, teeth are sharpened on both sides, (front facing and rear facing), and are offset alternately left and right of center, (called 'setting'). You could do it yourself with a fine cut triangular file, or a specific saw docoring file, but for best results, it's better to have it sharpened professionally.<br><b>References : </b><br> A hand saw is usually sharpened with a file, but it an exacting job.
