Professional Sharpening Service

Chris from Edgeware

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.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
