Sharpening and Reconditioning Services

C.L. Sturkey, Inc. is the oldest and largest manufacturer of permanent microtome knives in the USA. In addition to manufacturing knives, we are renowned for reconditioning and sharpening microtome knives, having done so for over 65 years.

We service what we sell. Our permanent microtome knife reconditioning service, like all of our products, is unconditionally guaranteed and our professional 48 hour sharpening service is second to none. We use the same quality craftsmanship and expert care to sharpen microtome knives that we use to manufacture them. We accept all sizes and styles from all manufacturers.

Upon receipt for reconditioning, each knife is identified and logged into our system. Every knife is ground, sanded, polished and honed to perfection. It must also pass five different quality control inspections before it is ready to be shipped.
