By uneven I assume you mean left to right? Is the deck leveled? Do you have a bent or worn out blade?

Seems like it always leaves high spots, I had the blades sharpened hoping that would help. Didn't know if dull blades were leaving a row a little higher. Ive never had to level it, I don't know how or where to start doing that. Also if I've got new blades ,can i go to a farm and fleet to get them?

I would start by taking a look under tractor. Are all the lift pins good? If any linkage is missing or bent that would cause a problem. If all looks good. check the height of the deck on a flat surface in the driveway. If one side of the deck is higher than the other this will cause scalping and uneven cut. If all your hardware is good and deck is level look at blades next. Also check your spindles for excessive play .

Does your deck have baffles in it still??

Don't take this as an insult, but after they were sharpened are you sure you didn't re-mount them upside down? Or maybe one right, one wrong. It happens!
We could also help more if we knew what deck you have. 38, 44, 48 inch? Quick attach or not?

Even the tires need balanced inflation. Fronts equal to each other and the rears equal to each other.
