I need a high quality personal knife sharpener who takes his time by hand, any recommendations appreciated, thank u
 
Honestly

Learn to sharpen well yourself

Once you learn to keep an edge up it only takes a few seconds to keep it that way

Good luck

You tube can be your friend

Just find reliable sources on it
 
Yep, what Joe said x2. You sharpen a knife once, then hone it or touch it up the rest of it's life...

There are a million sharpening videos on youtube. It doesn't take long to see who knows what they are doing and who doesn't. Pick you up a good sharpener (I personally like DMT products) and learn how to use it.

Tons of sharpening vids on YouTube. Start with Murray Carter or Mark Richmond.
 
Heavy-handed I would add to the list, though I don't know if he is doing it for people.

Richard J has skills, and he does it for money.
 
Im not sure if JM Jones offers sharpening but may be worth contacting him, he is over in Bangor I believe.
 
a person well known for sharpening should be every single knife maker.
 
Jason B, Josh at Razor Edge Knives, HeavyHanded, are paying members who might be the right one. There're some :thumbup: resident experts that frequent M T & E but might not be doing it for others.

On learning, rather than going in the wild searching who is real vs who thinks he knows but actually not, here's a good starting point:http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/s...hat-is-sharpening-a-knife-about-(2015-updates!)
HeavyHanded & Jason B has a lot of videos with good advices.
