A dull knife is both dangerous and annoying. Luckily, chef Jesse Barber is trained in the classic Japanese technique of water stone sharpening and he’ll be around this weekend only to get your knives in tip-top shape.

Drop-Off Sharpening / $10 per blade: Jesse can get your knives and scissors in top condition for you. Just drop off at Imperfetta for same day or one day turn-around, depending on demand. All metal blades are welcome, except serrated. Chips and damaged knives are case-by-case and will be charged at a higher rate, let Jesse take a look and see what he can do for you! No appointment needed.

30 min. Sharpening Lesson / $25 per person: Let Jesse demonstrate and give you a hands-on tutorial of the mechanics and finesse of proper wet stone sharpening. Just bring a knife you’d like to learn on, and a steady hand. Any additional blade is $10 to sharpen. RSVP required, please send an email to hello@imperfetta.com with a preferred time between 12-6pm.
