Any old home department carries kitchen knives--but a few blocks from the fray is Town Cutler, a pantry-size gallery where all sorts of handmade blades hang (wisely behind glass). Amid the steel tips, find antique quenelle spoons, leather strops, and the self-anointed town cutler himself, Galen Garretson, who sharpens knives at his whetstone for hotshot chefs and discerning home cooks.
