I re sharpen mine, not as rich as you lot that can afford to throw them away. Made up a jig to hold them, got a magnifyer to see them with and sharpen them up. I only throw away the ones that break but not all of them, some I grind up to become a profile gauge (note not gouge). works a treat. I sometimes make a story board from them too. I have in the past clamped a load of strips of bandsaw blades together to make a course rasp, works well in an emergency. Necessity is the mother of all invention. I don't throw anything away until there is no use for it.
