Who would you trust to sharpen your Customs?

I've seen a guy at the local show sharpening but I want to KNOW for sure the guy is gonna do an EXCELLENT job and stand behind his work before I let him have a whack at a $500+ knife. I don't think I'd get that from the guy there. YMMV

Don't do it, man!!!!!! A number of years ago, I had some redneck at a show decide that a couple of my big knives were sharpened too "thin" and needed a more durable "working edge".....so he proceeded to whack off the convex edge on my Sean McWilliams fighter:grumpy: If you are going to use a service, find out who sharpens the knives for the most expensive restaurants in your area. You have a better chance of getting a quality job done using one of those guys than somebody at a gun show.
 
I just bought a knife that I really like. I bought it from a previous owner and can't go back to the maker (he's deceased). Nothing wrong with the sharpness, but the very point of the tip is missing (maybe about 1-2 mm).

Do the gents listed in this thread for sharpening also fix a tip or do I need to look for someone else?

Thanks,
Thor

Hello Mike,

Thanks so much for the offer, that's really kind. The person I bought it from actually has someone who can fix it and so I am returning it to sender.

Thanks and take care,
Thor
