Those grinders would really do some damage to
good knives and your fingers and I would hate to see
that happen to you.
A hand held honing stone for a scythe
would work well but it would be very hard on the hands
just like a grinder would be.
The thing is they would really really really dig in
to the beveled edge and heat it up and make it weaker
just a badly as a bench grinder would that does not have
water cooled wheel in my opinion.
There is a WEN wet wheel grinder on FLEABAY right now for $19.99 and ten dollars for shipping.
The beauty of a wet well grinder is you set the angle of the table for the blades cutting angle and whammo!!,one pass and its done and the edge is finer than it was before due to the cool grinding.
The wheel will get a little green if you do not boil the dirt and grass off first but I still have my original wheel and a spare so....
