Default Drill Bit Sharpening.

I have several expensive HSS drill bits that need sharpening. Who in the Edmonton area does excellent work and is reasonably priced. Thanks!

I sharpen my own with a Drill Doctor sharpener, though depending on the diameter of your bits that may not be an option for you.

More information about your drills will help. You could check Rejent tool. I haven’t used them for a while. Could be pricey

I used to sharpen lots of bits in the machine shop. Cheaper in the long run to go buy a table mount or pedistal stand grinder and mount a bit jig on it. A fine finishing stone and a pot of cold water for quenching the bit. Or a wet stone grinder. A one time expense that will last a lifetime.
