The Process

How Knife Chip Repair Works

1

We Inspect the Damage

When you drop off your knife, we assess the chip or tip damage. Most chips are repairable during standard sharpening at no extra cost.

2

Grind Out the Chip

We use our belt grinder to carefully remove the damaged metal. The chip is ground smooth, reshaping the edge to remove all cracks and defects.

3

Resharpen to Factory Geometry

After grinding out the damage, we sharpen the knife to the correct angle -- 15deg for Japanese, 20deg for German -- so the entire edge is sharp and consistent.

4

Test for Smoothness

We test the edge to ensure no rough spots remain. Your knife comes back sharp, smooth, and chip-free -- ready for immediate use.
