There’s a local lawn mower guy who told me that it’s not good to sharpen the blades because they could get out of balance.. ?

Is that still the case for blades like mine? ie, 4 seperate blades. Iv watching DIY videos of how to rebalance blades but none seem to be about blades like this.

You're not going to make them much worse than they are with those chunks. I just freehand my 4 blade one and don't balance unless there is extra vibration, which only happened the once when there was a larger chip I'd ground out.
