I have been sharpening for over 50 years and do pinkers all the time.
There are not a lot of folks that can sharpen pinkers. I get them from all
over the country. My Name is Tommy marshall
(jemsharpeningservice@yahoo.com) web page jemsharpeningservice.com. I
charge $10.00 plys shipping which is $7.00
Have a great day
