My wife asked me to sharpen the turkey carver and it went so quick I went back to the house and grabbed and sharpened five others.

 

I have a wood shop with a lot of toys. Among them is an AirHandler floor model buffer (dust collection, eye shields, lighting, two speed Red Wing motor) complements of craigslist for one hundred bucks.   On a whim, I cranked the buffer up to high and ran a blade on the red rouge wheel.  Before doing so, the knives would push cut paper. After a couple runs per side, the knives not only pushed through paper, the friction feed back change was quite notable.

Accordingly, if anyone has a permanent station for sharpening and can set up a buff system, they’ll like the results.
