Inspection, Straightening
& Honing
In
which ever order you like, this is an integral part of
any knife, no less important than the others.
Inspection by qualified inspectors to keep knives
within exacting standards set for them; honing on a honing stand
with fine Arkansas honing wheels & soft stone; and
straightening by hand and on a hydraulic straightening
machine - all ensure a knife will more than match your
needs.
