@arantrek - there jean partridge knives, 5 of them - I dont think they're too special but they're what i have.. so making due. I'm afraid I cant bring them to you either, I'm not mobile at the moment..broken ankle

To be honest, I have never heard about needing to have them sharpened professionally the first time. I am the only person I would trust to sharpen my knives! The offer still stands Jaqui, and I am happy to deliver it to you if need be.

Pascalo Sabatier can be a good make of knife but they have a couple of ranges (my favoured sabatier knife being Lion) that range from decidedly average to great. Same to you if you wish to borrow my whetstone I can lend it to you.

Aww man that sucks :-( Where are you based? More than happy to come to show you how it's done.

I would agree with Bobbo in that I wouldn't want anybody to sharpen my own knives, but it's always good to have someone show you how if you're unsure.
