>>1461526>>1461509I'm knife guy in question. I have plenty of experience with woodworking and machining. You are right that you can mess up the temper but that's easy to prevent. When it gets too hot to hold dip in coolant. That is how I do my HSS cutters for my lathe. My main concern isn't material removal, so much as removing the material without fucking up the overall pattern of the blade.
ie. should I just try and round out the cutting side of the blade where its broken or should I reprofile the whole edge or should I sharpen with coarse stones until the chip is gone etc?
I have a very outfitted wood and metal working shop, so assume no tools are off the table. Any ideas?
