A home based knife sharpening service. William was friendly, and clearly explained what was wrong with the knives we had and gave a quote for the fixes ($36 per knife). We were able to pick up the knives on the next day, and they were...Read More

Very quick turnaround and great results! Everything about the transaction was pleasant and easy. Highly recommend! Called Friday at noon to see how quickly I could have the knives submitted/returned. Jennifer said they would guarantee by next day, but likely same day. I dropped off 5...Read More

Knives came out razor sharp and polished to a new shine. Drop off and pick up procedure was straight forward and easy. William is a master of his craft and seems to do this out of pure passion.

I had a knife that my father used from 1960s to his death, then my brother used until our mother's death in 2003, and now my husband is using. The blade is good and holds an edge, but the handle split and was wrapped in...Read More

William sharpened a Wusthof Chef's knife and a low cost vegetable cleaver and got them sharper than they had ever been before. Service was very friendly, the price extremely reasonable. I also decided to purchase a custom Nakiri knife (Japanese vegetable knife) from William. I am...Read More

Great service. It’s nearly impossible to find someone that sharpens using whetstones, almost everyone uses machines which yields less than ideal results. William was quick and professional with his work and was able to sharpen seven of my knives in just a couple of hours....Read More

I'm rarely leave feedback because it's usually pointless to do so, but I'll make a happy exception here. William did a fabulous job getting several kitchen knives into tip top shape. I was particularly concerned about a carving knife but …

Found William's service on google and after checking the majorly positive reviews, brought in my Shun premier baby to him for a touch up. $12 for a sharpening and I was using it later that night - razor sharp like it had been out of...Read More

William is really talented at what he does and treats your fine cutlery properly. He’s young, with a keen eye and steady hands. Knives are sort of my thing, I have & will trust him with my cherished Japanese knives. Careful not to cut …

Wow! Let me just say that William blew me away with his sharpening skills! This guy has over 9 years of experience in sharpening which I believe is considered an art form. You will too once you take a look at his edge work. Seriously...Read More

Very responsive when I contacted him. Easy drop off and pick up. Communicated well throughout. Had the knives back in less than 24 hours - probably would have been same day if I needed. Priced well. Most importantly, the knives are like new (if not...Read More

William did an excellent job with my knives just in time for Thanksgiving! He did eight knives for me - small paring knives and even my very expensive Japanese chef knife. Dropped them off in the morning and they were ready by afternoon....Read More

I had one knife sharpened with William. He had it done in a matter of 1 to 1.5 hours max. There were zero additional scratches on the heel or the spine of the blade but it was razor sharp to use. Cut through chicken like...Read More
