scotty: It is the end of the mowing season, they need to be sharpened anyhow. Corn plant material itself wouldn't take the edge off blades any more than grass. Back in my farming days and silage cutter doing grass and legumes was always harder on knives than corn, as it applies to keeping them sharp. Forign objects and stones are your worst enemy on keeping kinves sharp, in both cases.

The noise was as much the volume of material being cut. It didn't cut the engine rpm even a little. I know if I tried mowing that volume of grass it would affect rpm. Coarse stemed material always mows easier than fine stem material.
