Professional Sharpening Service
Kia Ora St Albans Community 👋
💥 Do you have knives or any other tools that need to be sharpened? 🔪🪓✂️
🛠️We work with a professional system imported from Sweden.
👨🏻🔧We focus on quality and performance, our system is the original in 💧water cooled sharpening.
Thanks to the low speed on our machine, there is no risk that the edge becomes overheated🔥 and loses its hardness.
The edge is continuously cooled with 💦water during the sharpening.
The fine-grained diamond wheel and slow rotation prevent the edge from becoming overheated.
Our system has a specially developed composite wheel with integrated polish for final polishing of the edge, which gives the knife a very sharp edge to ensure you have a cleanest edge.
Do we collect your knives/tools?
Yes, we do collect them from your business/house if your minimum spend is $40nz.
Our pick up time is 10am-11am and drop off is the same time on the following working day.
If it's urgent, you can collect it from our workshop or we can arrange drop off after 6:00pm the same day.
If you are outside of Christchurch, you will need to post them or drop them off into our workshop.
How long does it take to have my knives/tools back?
We try to do it ASAP, but please expect 24hs to have your knives/tools back as we have a big demand.
Important information.
When collecting your knives for sharpening, lay out your knives on a towel, fold the towel over the sharp end of the knives and roll up. Secure with string or tape.
Make sure you tell your colleagues that you have had your knives/tools professionally sharpened to prevent accidents.
Cost is going to depend on the conditions of the tool or knife, we may charge more if it needs repair, discuss beforehand.
Any other tool, please email us with a photo and we can discuss it.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
Poll: Canterbury is thriving on paper... but are you seeing evidence of Canterbury's improving economy?
As reported in the Press, Reserve Bank Governor Anna Breman recently gave a shout-out to our region, calling Canterbury a "stand-out" for how we recover from tough times. With tech firms growing and exporters investing, the business side of things is looking bright!
👉 But we know that "business growth" doesn't always mean the weekly shop gets any cheaper. While the city expands, many families feel like they’re just trying to keep their heads above water.
We want to know: With the business buzz of 2026, do you feel like things are finally looking up for your household, or does it still feel like a climb?
