Lawn mower blades...

So my grandparents have a troy bilt tuff cut 220, ive always kept up on the maintenance, making sure it always has good oil, filters, plugs etc.. it has one of those 3 in 1 blades, even after a real nice sharpening and tune up its been having some problems keeping up with the grass (clumping and not mulching right) because it slows down, especially after a request to lower the cut... so i was thinking, besides raising the governor, are there any 'bad-ass' blades out there? as in lighter or somehow better?... i was thinking about drilling a bunch of speed holes in the blade lol, but was worried about the integrity of it afterward... any suggestions out there?
