If your friend lives reasonably close you can let him handle sharpening, just make sure you tag along and let him show you the ropes.
Ideally, saving up a few items to hand him is doing him a favor, but ideally you would like to sharpen them regularly so it depends on how many tools you need to sharpen, and how often.
I have a colleague who is an expert sharpener and I hand him a handful every now and then since he does a fantastic job and it doesn't take him long. I've learnt basic sharpening from him and do as much as I can on my own and when I need more than a few done in one go I hand them over to him.
