Crankshaft Knife Edging

Anyone know of a machine shop around the DFW area that will do crankshaft knife edging? I've called a couple and neither can do it.

I thought the modern-day general consensus was that knife edging the crank was a bad idea... I could be wrong though... I'm guessing most machine shops don't want the liability of messing with the crank..

Ya that's the consensus I have gotten. Someone suggested it to me. Apparently its almost impossible to find a shop to do it and it affects the counterweight too much. So the idea has pretty much been scrapped
