    Dynamic Saw in Buffalo NY. As of this posting, their web site is experiencing problems. Been using them for my saw blades for years, without any problems.

    Dynamic is a good one. Ridge Carbide also will do router bits.

    Be aware that a sharpened router bit is not longer the same diameter as before. So if you use them for dados, well you know.

    I send mine back to Whiteside.

    edited to add: but it's been a long time since I needed any sharpened.

    That’s what I use also. Count your strokes and give the same number to each side. Only sharpen the flat side.
