You can do it yourself but we have ours sharpened. If I remember, a set

Same here. Straight, non-carbide knives are really cheap to have
sharpened.

I have three or four sets of planer and jointer blades, rotating a bunch
out to the sharpener when needed.


I stopped sending mine out because I could do a better job (sharper). The
"professional" sharpening job left rough scratches on the knives.
