Sharpen 7+
Dull knives are a bummer. They're in the in-law's cabin. They're in your home kitchen - and the question is... "How do you transport them easily and safely?"
When you sharpen 7 or more kitchen knives with us in Edina you'll receive a FREE canvas kitchen knife roll as part of your order to make transport easier.
