Cook Saw doesn't advertise it but I bet they sell it.

If the tooth spacing is right, after about you sharpen it about 3 times it will be the shape of whatever cam you have.  First time just hit the edge of the tooth, next time get a little more and by the third pass clean out the gullet.  I started out with 3 cams that were 7/8 and one that was one inch.  I don't plan on ever buying anymore no matter what bands I come by.  Thats what works for me.  Banjo

I bought a WM profile cam from Cooks, but it wasn't an exact match.  I had to spend time grinding it to match.  After that, I just hand ground Cooks cams to match all the WM profiles.  It's pretty easy.

Member cutting edge is a good choice. You can also get it from WM. It will fit the cooks sharpener just fine.
