Thanks Jim.
I'm pretty sure I've watched some of his videos.
For now, I think I'll leave my 4x36 the way it is, I use it mainly for flattening soft metals, as well as woodworking. My little 1x42 Dayton works fine for the blades since I added a 4 inch by 8 inch aluminum 1/8th inch thick plate to the tool rest. It doesn't have sides to get in the way of grinding the tang. For curved surfaces I have a 6 inch oscillating spindle sander that works great for roughing to shape, finish shaping is all done with files and a Dermel tool.
