wouldn't it be as cheap or cheaper to buy a delica with the ffg and swap blades? You already voided the warranty by a regrind, Just a thought. Unless you plan to change the shape of the blade as well, then that would be a different story.
But for support, I have only heard the guys talk about Tom Krein , but I imagine there are others

I don't know what Tom's charging now, but in 2010 he was charging $35 for a basic regrind plus ~$10 return shipping. Add on another ~$10 for you shipping it to him insured, and you're looking at about $55 round trip. Of course, any crazy grinds you want done, any exceptionally hard to grind materials, or other mods will add to the cost and keep in mind, that was 2010 pricing.
