Booking & turnaround · owner to confirm

Intake

Each knife is logged and read by hand — steel, geometry and the wear it carries.

Set

Coarse stones re-establish the bevel toward the angle the blade was forged with.

Refine

Progressively finer grits bring the edge up to a clean, low-friction finish.

Return

Deburred, stropped, tested, and handed back with notes on keeping it sharp.
