Is it plausible to pick up so parting blades and sharpen them top a
knifes edge on a grinder? I thought perhaps I could then make some
sort of handle to hold them while I used them on the Phosphor-Bronze.

You can certainly sharpen to a knife edge, but I'm not getting how this
would make a less tedious process??

What about tin shears?





I know this would be an unconventional use for parting blades and any
better ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks.
