Mechanical - Hybrid - Manual

 

A sharp knife is a joy to use.  We offer knife sharpening services appropriate to your cutting tool.  Standard Mechanical sharpening is performed with the aid of electrically powered tools.  Hybrid sharpening will use some power and some hand driven tools.  Manual sharpening is performed with no electrically powered tools. 

We apply the edge to meet your needs and your budget.
