Call, Text, or Email via website buttons. You will reach me directly, and usually instantly. Let me know what items you'd like to get sharpened, and we'll set a convenient appointment time. Turnaround can be same day if needed, and 1 - 2 days at most.

Quotes can be provided in advance, an itemized invoice is provided after drop off. Pay upon pickup of your freshly sharpened items :)

Nope! Sometimes you just have one or two things to do. If you need something sharpened, I'm here to help! 😇

I am pleased to offer the best single-bevel serrated knife sharpening anywhere. I developed my own technique over many years to fully cut and reprofile serrations down to 2.5mm. Anything smaller can usually still be touched up.

Most sharpening shops are not able to spend the time, nor have the precision, to offer correct serration sharpening, resulting in rounded teeth, or a corner-cutting double bevel 🤮

I use a range of grits on belt grinders, with razor sharp finishing via leather strop. This allows me to make all functional and aesthetic changes needed to bring the most performance and beauty out of an item. Heat is a non-issue and is mitigated by proper technique and water cooling if needed.

Whetstone sharpening, although my original sharpening method, is only available via special request.

Once I intake, measure, and assess your items, they are handled with sincere care during and after the sharpening process. Your items may mean a lot to you and I aim to return them in excellent condition. This includes cleaning with hot soapy water, oiling, or waxing, to get them ready for use as soon as you pick them up! 😍

Vast majority of the time, YES. The only times they may not be is if the item is worn past being used comfortably, or if you would prefer to invest in new equipment. Otherwise, knives and other tools that are used frequently will best serve you when they are sharp! Oftenwise,
IT IS THE SHARP EDGE THAT MATTERS MORE than the kind of knife/scissors/tool.

Cheaper sharpening services are available, with cheaper results that will require more frequent service (your money AND time) and shorter life of your items. Not to mention they won't ever really be satisfying to use.

A truly razor sharp and defect-free edge from a craftsman provides a user experience that can be nothing short of complete satisfaction or even cause for a gentle spiritual awakening 🤲😇
If you need to use these tools regularly, you deserve to have ones that both make your life easier, and are an utter joy to use. Life may just be too short to not enjoy this side of it.

Absolutely not. A BESS test will show sharpness at one point or 1% of the blade, but will not confirm the sharpness of the other 99% of the blade. It is an “in-vitro” test rather than “in-vivo” (real-world) 🧐

To demonstrate sharpness, I use thin paper which will bind on the blade wherever there is a defect. If I missed any chips or micro burrs for example, I will know immediately. A BESS Test will show the same knife is perfectly sharp when it still contains defects.
