Do you repair chipped knives?
Yes. Chip repair is reviewed according to the depth of the damage, the steel, and the amount of material required to restore a usable edge.
Can you fix broken knife tips?
Many broken tips can be corrected. The repair depends on how much material is missing and how the new profile will affect the knife’s function.
Can rusted knives be restored?
Some rust and corrosion can be cleaned or reduced, but the result depends on severity and whether pitting has compromised the blade. Photos help establish realistic expectations.
When is a knife too damaged to repair?
A knife may not be a practical repair if damage affects structural safety, removes too much blade height, or would cost more than the tool reasonably justifies. MKG confirms that honestly before work.
Do you remove as little steel as possible?
Yes. Repairs are planned to restore function and geometry while preserving as much usable steel and blade life as practical.
Should I send photos before requesting restoration?
Yes. Send clear photos of both blade faces, the edge, the tip, and the full profile so the condition can be reviewed before service is confirmed.
