A decent sharpening where I am at (Northern Indiana) is $1 per blade inch at
the shop. I don't like strangers coming to the house, so these guys that
come to you I don't bother with.

As the holidays get closer, I figured I'd better get the kitchen
knives sharpened. I haven't sharpened knives in years!

I called a couple places and they want $6.50 per knife regardless of
size. One wants $85 min. if they come to the house.

Another shop had a price of $5.00 for large and $3.00 for small.

Both sound a little high for me. I have about 10-15 with most
considered large that I'd like sharpened. So I might end up just
getting one large sharpened and use it for the next couple months.
Should stay sharp I hope.

l know nothing of store sharpeners, such as type, price, etc.
Any other suggestions?

I'm in the San Jose area
