CMT solid carbide drill bit sharpening

We use 8mm solid carbide CMT HWM 14-6346 drill bits in our boring machine. Our normal sharpener Vortex says they can not sharpen them because of the geometry.
Can anyone recommend someone who can? They are $50+ each.

Bill,
You sharpen them down or make the overall length of the bit shorter.

Who sharpens it? I understand it gets shorter when it is sharpened but I do not have the equipment to sharpen it.
Is there a company who can?
