Belts vs Whetstones
Here at Hometown Hone we're proud users of the Tormek T4 slow rotation water wheel system. Compared to the high speed belts other sharpeners are using this is gentler on your knife and leaves a precise and superior edge.

What is the turnaround for having my knives sharpened?
If you're dropping off knives at my workshop I'll ask that you pick them up the next day unless you need to make special arrangements. If you're bringing knives to the farmers market I'll let you know how long the wait is and I'll do them right there on the spot and have them ready to pick up before the market is over.
Do I need to make an appointment to get my knives sharpened?
When I'm out at farmers markets I operate on a first come, first serve basis. No appointment needed. I post my schedule every week so you know where to find me. When I'm not at farmers markets I work from my home workshop and I do appreciate it if you can just give me a heads up when you can stop by.
How should I safely transport my knives to you for sharpening?
What I recommend is that you roll the knives up in a dish towel and then place the roll in a reusable grocery bag to carry. If you're bringing a whole set please feel free to transport them in the block. When I'm done sharpening them I will wrap them individually in paper to protect the nice fresh edge and for your safety on the trip home.
Reviews
Some of our customers have been kind enough to share about their experience with our service. Here's what they had to say.
"Hometownhone did an amazing job sharpening my kitchen knives and a few pocket knives. Not having had great luck in the past with sharpening services, I was extremely lucky to to find this guy. Edges were better than new from the factory and though I haven’t cut myself yet, it’s a distinct possibility. Price was also very reasonable for the level of skill and professionalism delivered. Absolutely impressed and fully satisfied. Going to get the rest of my cutlery taken care of as soon as possible."
"Great work, my knives are all like new again! Highly recommend!!! Very fast at getting everything done and we had roughly 20+ knives to be sharpened."
"Major thanks to Hometown Hone for sharpening my kitchen knives!!!!! I’ve been wanting them sharpened beyond what I can do at home for a long time now. Just got them home and checked them out and they’re beautifully sharp. Definitely recommend this place for all your sharpening needs!!"
"Tony did an awesome job sharpening my kitchen knives as well as some landscaping tools!! Quick turn around time and reasonably priced. Very happy!"
