To request a regrind, please send an email to transparentknives@gmail.com
The purpose of a regrind is to reduce the behind the edge (BTE) thickness of a blade and thereby improving cutting geometry. In order to prevent overheating of the edge, I use a variable speed grinder at low speeds and grind wet.
All regrinds include sharpening on the TSPROF using diamond stones. I do NOT offer sharpening separate from the regrinding service.
Regrind requirements:
-Hollow jig regrinds only
-Blade length 5” and under
-Disassembly must be possible
-Not sentimental or irreplaceable
-$1000 or less in value (if it’s easy to do I can be flexible here)
Pricing:
-$110 shipped, $100 for each additional blade as long as they all fit in a small flat rate box. An additional $10-20 for swedges depending on complexity (if very simple no extra charge).
Important:
-Regrinding, like any modding service, has the potential to go wrong. If I mess up your knife I will cover the cost of getting a replacement. Please do not send knives that are either A) irreplaceable or B) exceed $1000 in value. I try my best to work with customers in the event that something goes wrong, like paying them what they paid if the knife cannot be replaced. But if you send a rare, sentimental knife please be aware that there is some risk associated with this mod.
