    I would really like to do this. There is no sharpening business within 30 miles of where I live. I asked several people in my family what they thought about me doing this. Most said that people would either buy a new knife or they would sharpen their own. I am retired but work a full time pizza delivery driver position. Really want to be doing something else.

Nach dem Aufsetzten der Teile habe ich germerkt das der gedruckte Aufsatz auf der Standardauflage etwas nach vorne wackelt. Dadurch verändert sich ja natürlich der Winkel. Ist das bei den Original-Teilen auch so? Auch für kleine Obstmesser ist die gedruckte Auflage nicht nah genug am Schleifband. Ist das beim original auch soß

      It’s like tying your shoes, once you know how, you know how 🙌 There’s also not one way to do the sharpening hence the different tools out there (whetstone/flathone) You should see the prices the sharpeners I see selling them for and the shops locally 😳 way less than $1200 but you’re completely right, they can be costly and definitely expensive for the business if they are damaged. It’s also part of growing is learning, trying, failing and doing better. You can do it!
