Where can I get Clipper Blades sharpened?

My Andis clipper blades don,t seem to be performing as well as they were. I always clean them and oil them after using them. I don,t know whether i should just order some new ones or try and get them sharpened. Anyone know the best place to send them to get sharpened?

With the clippers I have, it says send the blades to the manefacturer, and they will sharpen them and send them back to you.

They may need sharpening or they may have to much oil on them or if they are kept in a room with no heating on they may just need warming up a little before you use them.

Thanks all. It may be because they are cold then? i do make sure that the blades are clean and not clogged with oil. They are kept in my grooming room (hubby built me and it is seperate to our house) there is only heating on in there when i am trimming the dogs so i will try warming them before i use them.

They may need to be sharpened or they may be what happened to us, the hair clogs up with the oil and slows the clippers down, ours was because i didnt clean off the hair properly but its a possibility
