Many tanneries offer the service. Personally, I'd use the one manufactured with the machine. I have a Rawhide machine and I wouldn't use any other blade on my machine. I buy them directly from Rawhide.
I have used Van Dykes and have been less than satisfied with their blade sharpening and turnaround time. The next ones I send out will go to Seminole or Carolina Fur. I have heard good things from both places on sharpening.
I think so.

I called a close by tannery today and found out they do sharpen blades. I never even thought about a tannery. To be totaly blunt I would not even recomend the other two suppliers mentioned above to a enemy.... thanks again
i allways have used research and they do a good job and you get the blade back usually the same week you send it.
