Knife Sharpening

[remainingfree]

Hey everybody I'm looking for a local person (bangkok area) that sharpens knives. Any personal recommendations?

I use a thing called I think a butchers steel which is about the same length as a big knife and it is what a lot of the local butchers in the markets in Bangkok use. My wife uses a small thing and pulls the blade through what I can only describe as 2 grinder blades but I usually end up crashing the blade on the table if I use that one.

When I lived with a Thai lady I made sure the knives were all kept decidedly blunt - I have carried on that philosophy on into single life even though there are not ducks around this condo.

sharpening stones cost about 30 baht....all they need is water on them when you use them....the internet probably has instructions....its really easy.

I always use the rear of a larger Plate, bowl etc. the rim which is not glazed, a tiny bit of water or just moistened with your fingertip...always worked well.
