Hello all. I'm relatively new to knife-making, and have made some Damascus kitchen knives for family for Christmas. As a newbie, I've also got little experience with sharpening, and would like to give recommendations or gift certificates to each of them to have the knives get an initial edge from a professional.
If possible, are there any recommendations for folks in Chicago (and/or 'burbs), Ann Arbor, MI; and Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN?
Thanks and have a safe and happy holiday season.

I only have experience with Josh from RazorEdgeKnives (full reprofile and sharpening!) and his service is outstanding. Also, I would trust Jason B. here on Bladeforums any day of the week with any knife!
 
Thanks, I contacted Jason, and he's in the Detroit area, which may be close enough to my brother and sis-in-law in Ann Arbor. I was hoping for local, because, knowing my family, they probably won't send the knives out to be re-sharpened and just be satisfied with what I do, even though I will try to convince them otherwise.

If they want we could meet up or if they are interested I could probably drive out and give a little sharpening demonstration and class on knife care. I know everyone is busy around this time of year but let me know if one of those options work.
 
WOW! Thanks, Jason. I'll see if they're interested and get you my info so you can bill me.
