Only blades without serrated edges can be sharpened: cleavers, knives, hatchets, scissors, and drill bits from 3–22mm in diameter. The blades are ground and then polished to razor sharpness on a leather honing wheel. Drill bits receive a special cross-grind, preventing them from wandering when starting a hole and significantly increasing their cutting lifespan compared to conventionally sharpened bits. The point angle, rake angle, and clearance angle can be adjusted to match the material being drilled, e.g., thin-walled, brittle plastics. It is recommended to include a sample of the material to be drilled for optimal results.

Drill bits can either be provided by the customer or sourced individually through wholesale suppliers (HSS standard drill bits). Upon request, the shank of the drill bit can be turned down on a lathe to fit smaller drill chucks (please specify the desired shank diameter under “Other”).

Please download, print, and complete the attached form, then include it with the tools to be sharpened and drop it off at the workshop. Only fully completed forms can be processed.
