I've only done this once; I bought an old rip saw that was advertised as 'professionally sharpened'. Yeah, right, sharpened to crosscut. Ebay seller wouldn't refund so I recut the teeth by hand; afterwards it ripped like a gigawatt laser.
I have a really good Stanley crosscut saw that has been hung up in the damp too long - teeth need setting and sharpening. Just bid on some teeth setting pliers and will have to dig out the file.
Way back when I was a nipper one local job (offering apprenticeships) was 'saw doctor' in one of the sawmills.
