Cheaper knives are often made of decent quality steel. Many of these knives have stamped blades that are mass produced, and their edges are machine finished.
No two knives are identical. We sharpen according to manufacturers' recommendations. If there are none, our knife smiths will determine which angle is the best for your knife's blade.
Bevel angles can range from 10 to 30 degrees, Most kitchen knives have an angle between 17 and 22 degrees. Depending on the material of the blade (i.e. Damascus, carbon steel, stainless steel, or ceramic), the sharpening - and if necessary, grinding process - will be performed on different machines using varying belts or wheels with varying grits. Even the final stropping or polishing will be done according to what's best for the type of knife and blade.
Yes! Once you have placed an order, we will send you our customized, prepaid, and registered knife envelope. This envelope will also include a safety sleeve for each of your knives, further protecting them to ensure they reach us safely and securely. Even better, all shipments are insured and 100% trackable during the journey. Shipments are insured up to $500 - we may require photos and/or purchase receipts of your knives to support the claim. Choose between USPS (the Post Office) and UPS for shipping.
