    We teach people how to keep their knives sharp every day (watch this demo), and we have an overnight sharpening service for when they've gotten just too dull. Also: blade repairs and re-shaping.

Bring your dull knives and your sharpening gear; we'll be focusing on what works for you (and what doesn't), improving your technique and making recommendations. Wine and cheese will be served!

GREETINGS

    Hi. I'm Owen Mack. My father opened KitchenArts in 1980, the offshoot of an importing business his father started in 1930; you could say I've got kitchenware in my blood.

    KitchenArts is a hardware store for cooks--a shop that is serious about carrying items that get the job done. We're not into trendy colors, trendy designs, or kitchen fads. We don't carry tea cozies, we don't carry tablecloths.

    We do carry 248 different kitchen knives, 312 different pots & pans, 7 types of mandoline, 5 zesters, and 1 egg pricker.

    Have a question? Ask us...many publications do. You've seen us in Cook's Illustrated, Cooking Light, Elle Decor, The Boston Globe, and the New York Times. Boston Magazine has named us "Best of Boston" so many times we're in the Hall of Fame. We've got an opinion on most anything kitchen-related, and we'd like to share our expertise with you.
