    Ever try replacing knife-edge on one?
    Looks like they are removable with some persuasion....

    They aren't made to be removable, they are likely pressed into place on a hydraulic press. You could possibly press it out but you'd have to press in a slightly larger one in order for it to fit in solid. Or you could buy an OFR and drop it on with far less difficulty...

        Some people have been able to resharpen the knife edges carefully with a dremel tool without removing them.

              I don't think they are removable, I think the pot metal base plate is cast around the inserts.
