Hi,
I have an old Makita electric planer that I still use from time to time. I also have an older Tormek sharpener that I thought I would use to sharpen the blades. Is is ok to sharpen these planer blades on a device that puts a concave face on the knife edges? They obviously don't come that way from Makita, and I've no idea if this would weaken the knife in any significant way.
Thanks,
Joe H.
