I have a meat slicer that uses a 6.5 dia. proprietary blade. The blade

anybody here know the best way to sharpen this blade?
Thanks,

Sounds like a Chefs Choice? Blade looks like a saw blade from the side?

Those get sharpened from the back. They make a sharpener for them,
something like 40 bucks or so.

Greetings Steve,
The machine is a Rival brand machine. I wonder if the Chef's Choice is
the same machine. Anyway, my machine is pretty old, which is probably
why blades are no longer available. But I will check out the Chef's
Choice sharpener. In a worst case scenario I could drill out the
rivets holding the gear to my existing blade and attach a new blade. I
can drill new holes in the new blade with a carbide drill.
