Los Alamos Sharpening Services
Hand-honed sharpening for the kitchens, gardens, and workshops of Los Alamos and White Rock. Drop your blades off — they come back at least as sharp as the day they were made, often sharper.
The Craft
Factory edges are ground in seconds, one angle for every steel. We measure each blade, match the angle it already carries — or set it to what you ask for — and finish by hand.
Every blade is examined and logged — steel, grind, damage, and the angle it's set to. We keep that record on file, so a repeat sharpening matches exactly what we did last time.
The bevel is honed at the angle it already carries — or the angle you request — low and slow to protect the temper. No overheated edges, no metal removed that didn't need to go.
Finished by hand on the strop, and every blade is tested before it's returned to you.
Pricing
No hidden fees, no minimum order. Major repairs — a broken tip, a badly damaged edge — are quoted before any work begins.
All double-bevel profiles — chef's, paring, santoku, boning, utility.

Why It Matters
A maintained edge means your grandmother's shears and your good chef's knife never see a landfill. Keeping Los Alamos sharp keeps Los Alamos from throwing good steel away.
