Is it possible to repair wounded bread knives?

[Theodore41]

Hi.
I have two bread knives,a Kasumi and a Shun,and I have "wounded" both of them, cutting a loaf,one at a time,which had inside a metal part of a breadmaker.
Is it possible to repair these?

Are you able to post picture(s) of your "wounded" knives to get a better idea?

I'll try to.Thank you for your response.

Are you talking abut serrated blades with 1/4" spacing between teeth?
If so, I've resharpened them by first draw filing the smooth side of the blade then using a ceramic sharpening stick inside the serration. They come out as sharpe as new.

Is the fix/repair something that you will attempt, or are you looking to send it out?

I fix my serrated kitchen knives like NoNotAgain, using fine, round files in the curves and flat files on the back. If there are large nicks, I would try to roughly pound them out or otherwise approximate the original shapes first. I find this satisfactory, but may not be the proper way. I think that having an exact shape to each serration is not so critical to good function, so long as it is sharp.

Thank you very much.

That depends on how much bread you're willing to depart with!
