Care & service

Sharpening, in detail

  • How do I keep the edge?

    Strop on a leather strop charged with green compound after each use — that takes care of most of it. Re-bevel on Japanese water stones (1000 / 6000 grit) every six months or so under heavy use. Or send it in — see below.

  • Do you sharpen knives sent in?

    Yes — any maker, any condition. Hand-sharpening on Japanese water stones for kitchen, hunting and pocket knives. Service details and pricing on the sharpening page. UK return shipping included; international quoted on request.
