Dude, $6.50 to produce a sharp knife from a piece of shit is *more* than
reasonable.

Eddie, you're a tight-ass. These folks make a living doing this. Evidently
they do a good job of it, or they wouldn't be in business.

Do you really want to pay them McDonalds wages so you can use their skills
to prepare gourmet food?

Check the prices on new knives. Their resharpening prices are nonexistent
compared to new.

If you had the mad skillz to sharpen them yourself, then you would have the
room to bitch. As it stands, you're a tight ass.
