I like a sharp knife, who doesn't, but finding someone who specializes in doing this, and doing it…read morewell, is no easy task. I once took knives to a guy at the local farmers market who ran his business out of his truck and it was terrible. He did his work with a bench grinder and made a mess out of the cutting edge! When I checked out Delta Sharpening, I was pretty skeptical. No reviews, no background, but I liked his responses to my questions and comments, so decided to try him out. Brought him 5 knives of various pedigree, 2 that were at least 40 years old but I use all the time, a favorite pocket knife that I could never get sharp and a couple newer ones. When I picked them up, they were the sharpest I have ever seen! Jeff's pricing is very reasonable, especially for the results, and he's a very amiable guy, which just adds to the experience. I know this is his first review, which would make me skeptical if I were looking, but give him a try. I'm willing to bet you'll be pleased as well.

Got em back very quickly and I just can't believe they are the same knifes. I never imagined they could get so sharp and hold their edge. Funny thing, my wife was cutting onions the other day with one of them and you could not even smell the onion because the knife was actually cutting and not smashing the onion which is what causes the teary eyes. If you want a real deal sharp knife you got to call this guy and get your knifes over there. I'm going to dig out all my hunting and fishing knifes along with the rest of the kitchen knifes and send them all to him. Oh and did I mention fantastic prices.

I had 5 knives that needed some TLC and they were returned in even better condition than new…read more Before finding Mr. Sharp, my knives were chipped, bent, off-balance, etc and it wasn't tolerable anymore. I couldn't even cut an apple anymore. He put in some serious work and got them to where they should be and even better. I had two Japanese knives and 3 standard chefs knives (JA henckels, Chicago cutlery). I never thought I'd enjoy cutting with the Chicago cutlery as much as I enjoy the Japanese knives but that's how nicely he made them! I also got some great advice on upkeep, including adjusting some of my cutting habits and knife storage. Everything was returned nicely wrapped and in a timely manner ! Super responsive and great value. Will only be using him for sharpening going forward.

Service was excellent. Prices are very reasonable! Definitely will use Mr Sharp again!read more

I was at the MidTown Market on a recent Saturday morning when I ran across this booth at the very…read morecorner of the market near 21st street.This booth had this nice gentleman named Dave who was busy at work on his knife sharpening machine and I asked him a few questions to see if he could fix my knives I had at home that were so dull-he was super friendly and very informative and said he could help so I decided I would bring my knives to him the next time I was at the MidTown Market. Fast forward to a few Saturdays later and had my knives in my bag properly wrapped and I was able to drop em off at Dave's booth.He let me know he had a few knives ahead of mine but to come back in an hour and he would have mine ready. After shopping at the market for an hour or so,I went back to grab my knives and they looked great.Dave went out of his way to explain what he did to the knives and telling me the reason they were dull in the first place,made me feel like a "mini" knife connoisseur after that informative conversation.Dave charges $3 an inch to sharpen knives,so not a bad value at all for such professional service. Once I got home I had to test these bad boys out and what a world of difference. Those knives were cutting thru everything with minimal effort-I was very pleased-Thank You Dave for your excellent service. In closing-if u ever find yourself in need of having a knife or 2 sharpened-don't hesitate to head down to Reliable Sharpening at MidTown Market and have Dave work on your knives-you won't regret it.

Dave was fast, affordable, very knowledgeable. I will for sure be a customer in the future.read more

I had a brand new 8" Amici Wusthof Chef knife. It strangely came to me with something like a micro serrated edge...not smooth like a normal Chef's knife. Peter mentioned it might have been defective from the factory. In about 10 minutes he shaved off the serrations and made my beautiful knife sharp as a razor. I highly recommend Acme Sharpening. Fyi when I was waiting for my knife, I noticed he was taking apart and sharpening all kinds of garden tools. So, it's not just knives he does.

That also saved the trouble of fighting the traffic and crowds at the market (BTW, Peter said he will not be at the San Ramon Farmer's Market going forward). I brought 18 knives of assorted sizes to be sharpened, and they were done within a couple of hours. Peter called me when they were done, and they were nicely sheathed and wrapped when I picked them up. I paid by credit card. I haven't used other knife sharpening services, so I can't comment on whether the prices were good or not, but the 18 knives cost be a little over $140 (the price per knife varies by the length and type). The knives are very sharp (again, I don't have a benchmark for sharpness, but they're definitely a lot sharper than they were). I would definitely recommend Acme Sharpening to anyone wanting convenient, professional knife sharpening.
