Grant's talent's exceed my expectations. Recently, I submitted 2 Fixed Blade knifes and a Folder for service. They were ready in a timely manner at a reasonable cost. The folder at one time was rejuvenated at the factory where it was made. Custom Edge Sharpening could give the factory personnel instructions on how to sharpen a blade. Grant is that good! I am confident that this business will continue to offer great service. You can't go wrong with convenience, quality workmanship, and reasonable cost. Will definitely be doing more business in the near future.

I needed a cleaver and a chef's knife sharpened on a weekend afternoon and called Grant to see if I needed to make an appointment. Fortunately he was able to take my knives right away and sharpened them in less than 10 minutes while I waited outside. He even removes some of the surface rust I had on my cleaver for me that I didn't notice. For $10/knife, it's a little ok the high end, but service was nice and I feel like I've got a new set of knives!

If you need your scissors done you'll need to leave them with him, but otherwise bring your knives and they will be "sharpening while you shop"! Had my knives and my father's knives done by them and it's wonderful to work with a knife that actually cuts instead of slips off everything Here's a safety tip, pack all your knives into an padded oven mitt and throw a rubber band around it to transport.

I procrastinate about keeping knives sharp... it's a pain to find a place and get your knives back same day! So here I go, trekking to Oswego to the source. Buried in behind dense overgrown foliage and operating out of a garage crammed to the rafters with the tools of his trade is TOM! If for no other reason than to meet an unforgettable person AND save money it's worth the trip. Call in advance to make sure he didn't bag it and take the day off. It's easy to find the street but easier to drive past the house, shrouded in weeds, foliage, junk with an old white pick up in the driveway. Tom is a retired blacksmith not to be confused with a ferrier (who shoes horses). I got a quick lesson in using and caring for my knives and learned that walnut handles are the best because they are microbial retardant!. Thank God I had cash, had 7 knives sharpened for $20! I was very pleased even though Tom wasn't exercising any COVID conventions which is the only reason he gets one less star! Great job! Check him out!

I came across The Art of Sharp searching online for an affordable mail-in knife sharpening service…read morein the midst of Covid-19. I was pleased to find Frank's service was recommended and located not far from where I live. That way I wouldn't have to wait on or have the expense of mailing. His informative website further confirmed my interest as pricing was straightforward and affordable. In addition, his background and level of training (with connections to Japan) looked quite substantial. He seems to approach knife sharpening as something he finds intrinsically compelling as an art, beyond just a business. When I called regarding his services, he was very friendly and flexible schedule-wise as far as when I could drop off my four knives. It took only a day to get them done and the price was very affordable. I'm assuming it was his wife who met me at their door both times. She was agreeable to work with. In all, I highly recommend this no-nonsense service. As expected, my blades were dramatically and affordably improved and I won't need to invest in a high-end forged blade any time soon.
