Knife sharpeners: per-blade pricing that survives the drive. Free, no signup.
Presets are editable starting points, not market rates.
Serrated and specialty blades take about twice as long as plain ones.
Flat per-blade prices collapse when the drive, the setup, and the damaged blades stay invisible. Start with Your bar: your target hourly rate and daily goal. Pick a preset: Mobile house-call, Farmers market, or Restaurant route. Each fills blades per stop, price per blade, minutes per blade, serrated count, damaged count, drive minutes, miles, setup minutes, and the toggles for return trips and booth fees, all editable. Serrated blades bill double, and damaged blades add ten minutes each. In the leaks card, set round-trip drive, miles at vehicle cost, setup and teardown per stop, consumables per blade, and the market booth fee. The breakdown shows true cost per stop and per blade, plus profit at the recommended price. The big number is the recommended price per blade: true cost per blade plus fifteen percent, rounded up, with a five-dollar floor. Verdicts are PRICED RIGHT, CLOSE BUT LEAKING, WORKING TOO CHEAP, or LOSING MONEY. Leak notes flag drive beating blade time, reprofile blades, serrated share over a quarter, consumable share, return trips, and booth fees per blade. The gut check prices your old quote, and the day planner counts stops to your goal. Free, no signup, runs on your phone.
Example only, not typical pricing. A mobile house-call stop at the defaults: 12 blades, 2 serrated, 2 damaged, 6 minutes per blade, $50 bar, 30 drive minutes, 24 miles at $0.67 per mile, 15 setup minutes, $0.35 consumables per blade. Blade minutes are 104: 60 plain, 24 serrated at double time, 20 for reprofiles. Total time is 149 minutes, or 2.48 hours. Labor is $124.17, vehicle is $16.08, consumables are $4.20, and true cost is $144.45, or $12.04 per blade. The recommended price is $14 per blade, which earns $9.48 of profit per hour against a $50 bar, so the verdict is WORKING TOO CHEAP. A $6 gut quote brings $72 in revenue, lands $72.45 below true cost, and leaves $96 on the table.
