Is there a simple way to joint knives on a planer? I have never jointed the knives before and am looking to see if it will make a difference in the cut or longevity in the blade’s sharpness.

Large cast iron thickness planers are available with manufacturer supplied precision grinders that mount right on the machine to resharpen and joint the planer's blades while they are mounted in the cutting head, but there is no way to do this, that I'm aware of, on smaller machines.
