I live in Hawaii (Oahu) and as far as I can tell there is no place that has those professional water cooled sharpening machines.
There are knife sharpers that say they can do it but i dont think they have any specialty equipment. Also another guys i know had a bad experience with the person I was going to go to.
Anyone sharpen their own knives? I have seen guys doing it with an angle grinder with a sanding disc lightly.
Is there a better tool?
I know its important to keep them the same weight and to not overheat them.
My chipper knives are crazy expensive. They are discontinued so I have to get them manufactured. $500 with shipping per knife. They weigh 17lb each and are 16” long.
