Every Knife Tells A Story
When your knives arrive, our sharpening specialists inspect each blade for steel type, grind style, existing damage, and edge geometry. This ensures each knife receives a customized treatment suited to its material and purpose, whether it’s a German knife, a Japanese blade, or a well-used kitchen favorite.
Always Sharpened by Hand
The main sharpening process is done entirely by hand using air-cooled ceramic belts, precision bench grinders, and ultra-fine Japanese whetstones. For repairs, thinning, or edge re-profiling, we adjust our technique to match each knife’s steel type and factory-correct angle.
Japanese & Asian-Style Knives
10–16° per side, depending on steel hardness and blade geometry. These are finished on progressively finer abrasives and polished by hand on leather belts for an edge worthy of a sushi chef.
German & Western-Style Knives
17–20° per side, for durability and controlled bite. We use structured abrasive belts for a toothy yet refined edge that grips produce skins and proteins alike. The result is a balanced cut that lasts.
Serrated Knives
Each serration is individually restored at 3–6° on the flat side, maintaining the original pattern. We finish on ultra-fine belts or leather wheels to leave the serration tips crisp and razor-sharp.
Our Sharpening Master
Every knife is handled by trained professionals with years of sharpening experience. Our lead sharpeners oversee quality control, ensure angle accuracy, and continuously refine techniques to match the world’s best culinary standards.
