This is simple!
Get a long straight carving knife. Put it in the groove and with a 2oz Ball
Peen hammer Tap the back side of the knife. Hammer on a cutting board.
Get a pair of parallel pliers with smooth jaws. You can then squeeze the
groove tighter if needed. Put a piece of 20 thou brass shim stock to act as a
thickness guide.
Be gentle. With practice you will make them look like new.
