Hey hey now Sage, all I'm saying is that over time, its better, and cheaper to learn how to sharpen your knives yourself. I've had to use knives that have been ground down so much that you hit your knuckles on the board every time you make a cut, it really hurts.
Maybe it's just that most professional sharpeners in my neck of the woods are used to sharpening skates, but learning how to sharpen a knife yourself isn't too hard. All it takes is about 10-15 strokes on a waterstone at the right angle (just look at the angle of your knife) and a few strokes on a steel to finish the job.
