As I begin to compile a list of the types of blades and sharpening services I will offer in my side business, I hopped onto Ben's website and observed that the Edge Pro Professional sharpener has a blade table able to accommodate blades upwards of 5.25" wide while the Apex version is only capable of 3.5" wide. Measuring my little Fiskars hatchet at 5" from edge to back, it would fit on the Pro's blade table.
It's getting near the size limit- that's for sure, but I wonder if it's worth advertising for? Anyone with the "Pro-Pro" ever try something similar? Mirror polish a hatchet for the hell of it?
My other worry is straining the the system due to the additional weight.
Looking at some other hatchets...
4"-5"
5"
5"
However, most don't list the width, or only list the cutting edge width.
