Is the problem that the knife is too long, too wide, or what?  Also, 
how much material are we talking about removing?  You could use a 
file if it's not a lot.   There is such a thing as a power file.  Check this:

I have never used one.  Never even seen one in person.  And I have no 
idea how long of a file it could take.  Of course, it costs more than 
a new knife block.
