Why post your knives in

Better than thecorner sharpener.

Wollongong and the Illawarra region support salons serving both the local community and South Coast visitors. The region's steady population growth continues to expand the professional grooming market. For Wollongong 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 Wollongong. Wollongong is close to us geographically. Express Post arrives in 1-2 days, with total turnaround typically 4-5 business days. For $>$100 orders we cover Express Post on the return leg. Most Wollongong restaurant kitchens batch 8-12 knives at a time and never pay return postage.

Climate notes for Wollongong kitchens. The Illawarra's coastal climate brings humidity and occasional heavy rain. Keep blades dry and oil regularly to prevent coastal corrosion.
