plus 2 hatchets, some garden shears and some scary looking old country Dutch long handle clipper apparatus things.

Anyone know of a good sharpener place?

Not sure why, but your presentation made me laugh my ass off on this one. Well done Jonesy!!!

Unfortunately, unless you live in South Central Kansas I can't help you find a place to sharpen your implements!

darn, as of now, I'll have to keep them dull for another week. It might come down to checking the yellow pages, that big old dusty heavy book on the fridge.

I had a friend who's favorite expensive kitchen knife was ruined by the Knifery in Chinook. She also says that there's Butchers and Packers somewhere down in the southeast. They apparently don't do 'while you wait' sharpening, but they do a good job.

That's pretty funny Jonesy. I thought you were gonna rip somebodies face off.

Buy a sharpening stone and you will have a good reason to buy some beer.
Then you can be working and enjoying it.

Don't forget to get your lawnmower blade sharpened while you're at it... Makes a world of difference.
