Give a man a fish and he eats for a day, teach him to fish, and he eats for a lifetime.
The factory sharpening service is great, but it's even better when you can just do it yourself in a few minutes. Don't give up on building your own skills. It makes it a lot faster, easier and better. You'll thank yourself in the long run. I've tried lots of sharpening systems and now use only the Sharpmaker, Edge Pro and a leather strop. I recommend the Lansky system too ( I had one and replaced it with the Edge Pro).

I do sharpen my own knives I am a chef but I like this service and its part of the warranty I do it withheld all my knives protech microtech zt and so on.pluss they also clean it up and repair worn parts at least at the other factories this is a first for me at spyderco.I just like the service and I figure you have it with the warrant why not use it its only $5 and I love factory fresh blades.I sharpen my chef knives cause I cant be without them for a day let alone a month.I also sharpen my beater knives that are to far gone.thank for the info though

With BLADE Show coming up, I'd expect longer, rather than shorter, turnaround. Turnaround time also depends somewhat on where you live. They return ship by UPS ground, so that can add an extra week or so if you live on the East Coast.

That's why I send them back we actually pay for these warranties in the price of our knives it just makes sence to use it or you are wasting money.pluss if I mess it up they void the warranty .I no it still is covered by a strong warranty when it is returned cleaned and sharpened.protech -zt-microtech-kershaw and lion steel change the bushings -screws- washers and anything else that is warn when you return it for sharpening .does spyderco do that?even if I was the best at sharpening I still would send it back cause it is part of the package bought with the knife and that is why I buy these expenspive knives.contrary to evryone else I have had nothing but great dealings with microtech.If its a auto you have to send a copy of youre active military id or police id.you can find copies of these online if you need to they never check and you only have to send it once if not send it threw a dealer like blade Hq.
