Does anyone have suggestions on how to find someone to sharpen knives, or what item i could buy that would allow me to do this at home. I currently have one chef knife that is in rough shape. I am also purchasing a knife or a couple for my girlfriend, therefore I will be responsible for keeping those sharp as well. if it makes a difference my current knife is a messerstahl (might be spelled wrong) they are supposed to be based out of California, and am looking to buy either a Japanese style blade or a western style made by a Japanese maker.
