Drop-off Sharpening
Drop-off during business hours or 24/7 via dropbox (Grab a box from the newsstand in the walking alley behind the store.)
Sharpening orders are processed based on the queue and generally ready for pickup the same day, or the next business day. Occasionally, and more often in the mornings, we can sharpen orders on-the-fly. We'll text you when they're ready.
Dropbox (in the alley)
Easy drop-off 24/7:
- Grab a knife box in our orange newspaper stand in the back alley and pack your knives.
- Complete a form and decide if you'll pick them up OR have them mailed back to you (if mailed, we'll send an invoice by email with a link for payment).
- Drop them in the dropbox. We'll sharpen and let you know when they're ready for pickup or mail right away.
