14.01.2022 Gyuto Knife Sharpening offers a professional hand knife sharpening service. Hand sharpening using whetstones is the only way to achieve a truly sharp knife. Electric grinders will do a reasonable job but tend to be clumsy, unrefined and may even overheat your blade. Steels are adequate for maintaining your knife but eventually your knife's edge will fade away. That's when I can help. I use only high quality whetstones in a 4 stage technique mastered by Japanese sword-smiths n...ow applied to professional kitchen knives. Step 1. (Repair) Your knife will be ground using a super coarse stone to remove any chips or damage & even restore lost tips if necessary. Step 2. (Grinding) Using a coarse stone your knife will be ground to a precise even edge at 10-15 obtaining the perfect balance of durability and sharpness. Step 3. (Honing) With a series of medium grit stones I will hone away the rough burs left by the coarse stone to reveal a smooth and even edge, ready for the final stage. Step 4. (Polishing) Finally a super fine grit polishing stone will be used to achieve a mirror finish to your knife's edge, keeping it sharper for longer and allowing it to glide through foods with precision and little resistance. Is all this necessary you may ask? Any chef worth their salt will tell you so. Sharp knives are a pleasure to work with, not to mention safer as you need only apply little pressure to cut food & will save you time and money. For chefs regular sharpening will keep your knives brilliantly sharp and a joy to work with. Also the more often I sharpen your knives the less work has to be done so the cheaper it will be for you. Contact me for a regular sharpening schedule. Remember! Maintaining your tools is tax deductible and all of my work comes with an invoice for this purpose. For household knives. At home you can benefit just as much as a chef can from having beautifully sharp knives. Under every day household use and proper care, good quality knives can stay sharp for months on end. Mobile service coming in the summer.
