Re: Need a Knife Sharpener near Richardson
Maybe i am old school, but I have always sharpened my own knives, BY HAND! The only change I have made in 45 years is go with the DMT diamond hones. They are a necessity with the new metals. I use DMT products exclusively and they provide sharpening instructions. The only change I make is in finishing and hardening the blades..strop them on an old GLASS Dr. Pepper bottle. No other brand will work, because of the shape. Just my two cents worth. It's not that hard to do. I paid my way through college at Tarleton State (class of '74) sharpening the knives for all the cattleman, ranchers, and Ag students..especially during branding time..
