Seems I do have a Veritas tool in my shop..

I bought a plug cutter, a 3/8" Tapered Plug cutter. Back when these first came out.
Begining to think it MIGHT be getting a little on the dull side....I also have to slow the drill press down to as slow as it will go, otherwise, it will burn the wood. It also is having "issues" with clearing the chips out, and snapping the plug off. Shank on the cutter is a Hex shape. 2 flutes. Used to be a bright gold colour.....
So,.....how does one sharpen one of these? Starting the cut is a bit "rough", as it wants to shove the pine blank aside, taking my hand along with it.
I really doubt IF Lee Valley would sharpen it back up.....and, I really need to make another 11 plugs, to complete a door build..now...

Marks from where the cutter skittered across the surface....this is also about half of the plugs needed...
