Abstract
A mulching blade for rotary lawn mowers having a centrally-disposed mounting point and two cutting arms extending outwardly therefrom, each cutting arm having a leading edge and a trailing edge, the leading edge being sharpened to form a cutting edge for severing grass, at least one of the arms being angled downwardly from said trailing edge to said leading edge to induce grass clipping upwardly for subsequent engagement with the cutting edge of the second cutting arm in order to finely mulch the grass clippings. Each cutting arm is generally horizontally planar proximate to the cutting edge to allow for ease in resharpening.

A lawn mower mulching blade for lawn mowers for improving the mulching characteristics of the lawn mower in severing grass from a lawn, said mulching blade comprising:
- a centrally-disposed mounting segment, generally disposed in a horizontal plane having an aperture therethrough for mounting said mulching blade on the spindle drive of said lawn mower;
- a first cutting arm in alignment with a second cutting arm extending outwardly from said mounting segment, said second cutting arm defined by a leading edge and a trailing edge in sloped angular relationship, said trailing edge of said second cutting arm in planar relationship with said mounting segment, said leading edge of said second cutting arm disposed above said trailing edge, said leading edge of said second cutting arm being sharpened to provide a cutting edge for engagement with grass clippings, sad first cutting arm defined by a leading edge and a trailing edge in sloped angular relationship, said trailing edge of said first cutting arm in planar relationship with said mounting segment, said leading edge of said first cutting arm disposed lower than said trailing edge, said leading edge of said first cutting arm being sharpened to provide for a cutting edge for engagement with said grass.
