Ryan,
        Here's the name of the company that I have used for resharpening
cutters:
        Rocky Mountain Reconditioning
        964 Pulpit Rock Circle South
        Colorado Springs, CO 80918
        719-599-5445

        As I remember, the costs were very reasonable and included new
springs and cushion grips when required.
