Go to The Sports Authority and get yourself a Lansky Diamond kit.  Anybody can be an expert with one of those.  For a service...sorry I don't know of anyone.

Yeah...was actually looking at Smiths tri-hone diamond sharpener for $80 on eBay
Haven't looked at the lansky yet. I'll check it out.
Thanks

I think the clamp is the same on all of their kits.  Just the stones that differ.  All work well.  Just the diamond stones make life much easier.  You will be happy with it.  I have never used the clamp stand.  Can't give any advise there.

Ive got an older fancy shmansy Cabelas knife that is only ground on one side.....does the Lansky handle that ???  It came with a life time resharpen thing, but that involves sending it in and god knows what that would entail.......

There is a Excalibur Knives in most of the shopping malls, if you don't feel like doing it yourself.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!

Now then, get your equipment—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.  Gen. 27:3

Golden Steer butcher sharpens.  Butcher at Duvall Family Grocer does too.  In fact talk to mostest counters and you can find a lead.
