Paul_ Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Sent mine to Mastergrave a few Fridays ago, they came back to me the following Wednesday. Pretty good service i'd say. Happy Dude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't keep a spare? What if they get lost in the post? What if they can't be sharpened? Problem looking for somewhere to happen.

Happy Dude Posted July 19, 2017 Author Report Share Posted July 19, 2017 Fortunately I'm not a pessimistic kind of guy, I'm confident they will get back to me. I run a small mail order company and have sent over 300 parcels in the last 6 months, none of them have been lost. Lucky?? Maybe, but life is too short for what if's, what about's and doing things in dribs and drabs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GLENGRAVING Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I'm looking through old threads on this topic - I will send some blunt cutters/tips to Pantograph Services or Mastergrave. I still have a couple questions A few people have mentioned that they do sharpening in-house - what machine is used for this? is it something like a tormek grinder with a jig, or a more specialised tool? Also, is there anywhere to buy the gravograph twin-cut inserts, other than direct from Gravograph? [and any idea on their price? not sure if it's worth the hassle of swapping tips if only saving a few quid] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDTL Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I brought a Tormek T8 a few months ago from www.axminster.co.uk I phoned them first and said I would like a demo they spent best part a hour with me . And after the demo i new it was easy and a profitable business, since then I have sharpened well over a 150 knives and starting to get a few tools in too i.e. Chisels, Axes etc etc . hope this helps kobblers and keithm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beware Posted February 6, 2019 Report Share Posted February 6, 2019 Gravograph machine for cutters is the CG30. I don't know if anyone has counterfeited the twincut cutters but if you're looking to save money just switch to buying cheaper onecuts.
