These aren't that expensive via Amazon:

Think I'd try clamping the pieces together and have at them with a
small angle grinder. Doubt if the outside being slightly rough would
hurt anything. Whether losing a couple millimeters on the outside and
probably some of the wedge causes them to wear out faster is the
question...
