Hello Max!
Thank you for the interesting posts Max. You've raised our curiosity though. We've been told by several of our professional sharpening clients that when they sharpen at "Big Box" stores that they are required to sharpen with sharpeners that are sold by the store chain. I guess everybody knows what kind of sharpener this might be but propriety prevents us from mentioning the brand name here. Let's just say that you plug it into the wall and little wheels start spinning around. Just this week a sharpener told us that he declined the invitation based on this restriction. Obviously you have circumvented this restriction. We don't want you to damage the relationship you have with your client in any way but can you shed any light on this or was it just a non-issue for you at this particular location?
If you don't feel like you can discuss this matter then please simply ignore the question.
