Better than thecorner sharpener.
Newcastle's revitalised CBD and growing suburbs support a strong salon and pet grooming community. As the Hunter region's hub, Newcastle professionals serve a wide catchment area from the coast to the Upper Hunter. For Newcastle cooks and chefs, the question isn't whether the knives need sharpening (every kitchen knife in regular use does, eventually). It's whether to drive across town to a local sharpener with a flat wheel, or post the knives in to a workshop that uses the right tools for each blade.
We sharpen on Japanese whetstones at the original edge angle of each knife. Western chef knives at 18-22 degrees per side. Japanese gyutos and santokus at 12-15 degrees per side. Single-bevel yanagiba and deba preserved as designed. No flat-wheel shortcuts, no overheating, no aggressive metal removal. Send the knives in 1-2 days, get them back inside a week.
Postage from Newcastle. Express Post from Newcastle arrives quickly at 1-2 days. We can have your blades sharpened and back within 4-5 business days. For $>$100 orders we cover Express Post on the return leg. Most Newcastle restaurant kitchens batch 8-12 knives at a time and never pay return postage.
Climate notes for Newcastle kitchens. Newcastle's coastal humidity requires attention to blade maintenance. Regular oiling and proper storage will prevent rust issues common to coastal locations.
