One of my tools is my brain, so I make sure to "sharpen the saw" from time to time.
Sharpening a saw by hand is a difficult, slow, and risk-prone activity. If you mis-align the teeth, you may end up with a duller saw than when you started. If you apply force in the wrong place, you may break the blade altogether.
Sometimes it's just cheaper and easier to buy another saw blade, or even another saw. In the context of programming, that would be consultation or collaboration with a co-worker, or perhaps hiring someone new...

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
