Buffy:
One option for you is to send it to one of the knife makers here on the forum and ask them to grind it out for you.

If it is not the kids, then it is a roommate, a friend, could even be husband. I keep everything locked up and no one has the key but me, I learn a long time ago...if you do not want it destroyed...then you have to put where no one can get it. That includes the cats and dog and parrot. smile
