SHARPENING FAQs
-
You can drop your knives off in store at any time.
We sharpen them - they essentially join a queue - and email you when they are done. Turnaround for sharpening is typically a couple of days for sharpening, 10 days for repairs. We will give you a better idea when you drop them off.
Please bring your knives to us in a clean condition and well packaged. Make sure to clean the blade thoroughly and wrap them in a tea towel or similar. If your knives aren't wrapped, we can't take them.

We take in any number of knives but, as you will be without them for a while, it might not be best to bring every knife at the same time.

While can sharpen anything, the quality of the knife may mean that it simply isn't worth the spend. If this is the case, we will gently let you know - please don't be offended!

We email you when your knife is ready for collection. We are a small team and, as we operate a queue system, sometimes it can be quicker or slightly longer than we suggested. Please bear with us. If it has been a significantly longer time frame than we suggested, please email hello@kitchenprovisions.co.uk and we can help.
