Try Alderman's Saw Shop in Warsaw, VA.  They have always treated me well.  Really nice folks

Alderman's doesn't hammer large saws. large being over 30"  they will ship your saws to north Carolina and get them hammered. it's a six hour drive to the place to where they hammer them.   still looking for a closer place. thanks for the lead though!!!!!

Thanks for that update WPL.  I use them with my Lucas blades and have been pleased with their service.  Didn't know that they had a size limit.

Try Reed's Saw & Tool in Lynchburg.  I take my Lucas blades, my table saw/miter saw blades, jointer and planer blades to them and they do a great job at a fair price.

Reeds Picks up and delivers once a week for us but we are only an hour away.  they may have a truck going through your area.
