Welcome to the forum .

And, may I point out on a point of etiquette, copying and pasting my tool cutter grinder wanted ad into yours is on the threshold somewhere between lazy and plagiarism .

But I don't think it answers the OP's question? .

For £500 you could buy a lifetime's supply of carbide cutters new. Why bother with resharpening, unless of course you like the challenge.

Have a look at Bangood or Aliexpress.
