How it works

  1. Book online. Enter your address (or tap "Use my location") and we'll show the days our truck is in your part of town.
  2. Pick how you want it. Porch knife drop: pay ahead, leave the knives in a box on your porch, and you don't need to be home. Or be home to talk about your knives and pay the driver.
  3. We text to confirm your day. Usually within a few hours on weekdays. Weekend bookings are confirmed Monday morning.
  4. We sharpen on our truck. Usually the following week, on our route through your area. Porch knives go back in the box on your porch, and we text you a video.

What we sharpen

Chef's knives, santoku, paring, boning, carving and bread knives, cleavers, and German and Japanese knives. We sharpen serrated knives ground on one side, which covers most bread knives. We don't sharpen serrations ground on both sides. We also sharpen kitchen shears and household scissors (not barber or salon shears).

What the visit actually looks like

We park out front. You hand over whatever's dull: knives, cleavers, kitchen shears, the bread knife nobody has touched since 2021. We sharpen on the truck, hone and wipe each blade, and hand them straight back. Most visits are over before the dog has finished being outraged about it.

You don't need to clear a counter, prepare anything, or own nice knives. A drawer of supermarket knives is a completely normal at-home visit, and a sharp $20 knife is a genuinely good knife.

Questions

How long does the visit take?
Minutes, not hours. If you're home, we sharpen while you stand there. What makes a job take longer.
Is there a minimum number of knives?
No, but the $35 trip fee is per visit, not per knife, so one knife at home works out to $43 while a whole drawer costs barely more. If it really is one knife, drop-off is the cheaper move.
Will you sharpen my Shun, Wüsthof or Global?
Yes, at the angle the knife already has, same $8 as any other knife. More on brand-name knives.
Do I need to be home?
No. Pick Porch knife drop when you book: pay ahead, leave the knives in a box on your porch, and we sharpen them on the truck, put them back in the box and text you a video. Want to talk about a chipped tip or a special knife? Pick the "be home" option instead.
How soon can you come?
We fold at-home visits into our next route through your area, usually the following week.
Do I pay up front?
Only for a porch knife drop, so we can sharpen while you're out. If you're home for the visit, you pay the driver. No contract either way. Texas sales tax applies.
Do you sharpen Cutco knives?
Yes, straight-edge Cutco knives. For Cutco's serrated Double-D knives, we'll look at the knife and tell you on the spot. More on Cutco.
