I've been making some nice Trade points from older saw blades lately and they come out real nice! However, I can't get the darn things sharp.... Tried single and tried double bevel! Tried file, Stone, and Lansky system.... Nothing working for me.... Any advice?

When you sharpen, are you getting a burr along your edge?
Problems with mystery steel and heat treating is that without knowing the chemistry of the steel, the heat treat is a shot in the dark. Have you tried a snap test?
