A Cutting Edge Knife Sharpening - Knife Sharpening Near Me

Nick did a fantastic job sharpening the knives we had. One was a pocket knife I wanted to get cleaned up as a gift for my father in law. I could hardly recognize it because he did great at making it shine and cut again. Would recommend his service to anyone! read more

By all means avoid this kid. I had my two Zwilling knives (made in Germany) and one scissor (made in Japan) that needed to be sharpened for the first time. Since Brian in West Covina, who was one of the best, has retired, I googled to find a reputable sharpener around my area. And I contacted this kid and asked his address to bring them. But he didn't respond to me until the next day. In hindsight, I should have sought another guy at that moment because one who is poor at communication is usually also poor at his profession. I drove to Fullerton and a young guy came out from his house, and asked whether I would wait or pick it up later. Since I knew from my experience that it would take about an hour, I said I would wait in my car. Waiting an hour is no problem for me. Surprisingly he came out in ten minutes, saying that since mine were really good ones, he could finish the job so quickly, which made me a little nervous. However, since we were on the street holding knives, I thought that it would be awkward to check them there. And I wanted to trust him. Even if things go wrong, I believed there would be a recourse. So I payed $20 for ten minutes labor and left his place. Back home, when I checked the knives, I found that his job was very shoddy, to put it mildly. As is clearly visible from the pictures below, it was simply unacceptable. I immediately contacted him and then he insisted that since I was waiting outside he could not have done the job as best as he could. But the fact is that I NEVER asked him to get it done as quickly as possible. Furthermore, as is visible from the picture, the Chef's Knife (10 inch), which cost about $200, looked damaged. But he would not admit any failure, insisting it was manufactured as such. Since it was Thanksgiving weekend, I wanted to resolve this issue in a good spirit. I texted him to make an appointment to re-sharpen them. I've given him five days to respond in vain. Apparently, he chose not to respond at all. I believe this kid must not practice this job. Sharpening requires a proper training and experience, which evidently is lacking in this kid. His skill failed, his communication failed, and his work ethic failed me. Seeing that Cutting Edge Knife Sharpening runs business in many places, I suspect that they recruit people working at home without a proper training, like Uber business model. I contacted Zwilling to seek their opinion, and if needed, to order sharpening service. They replied that it needs to be replaced. End of the story. read more

I really needed a knife sharpening service due to the fact that I have a TON of cash wrapped up in my cooking knives and ZERO experience sharpening them. I found a cutting edge sharpening on yelp and immediately reached out. Nick, the owner, responded, quickly and was able to provide the services I needed, to include, sharpening and repairing a broken tip on two knives. long story short, he did an amazing job at not only sharpening my knives but, repairing the broken tip on both knives. All accomplished in about an hour and a half. I showed up at his shop, and he immediately began work on my knives. Nick is personable and friendly. The kind of guy anyone would want to work with. I definitely recommend his service. you will not be disappointed. read more

Nick took my dull kitchen knives and sharpened them up so they cut like new. I have to bring him the serrated knives next to sharpen.

I was able to meet with Nick and have him sharpen my spyderco! I thought he did a good job on my spyderco, and I really appreciate his work! I can honestly say that I believe Nick really enjoys what he does and he is good at it! If you need your knives sharpened, I encourage you to give Nick a shot! My Spyderco also came in with some damage on the blade, from normal use but Nick was able to bring my knife back to normal and it does look great now. Picture included to see the beauty. Thanks Nick! On top of being great at sharpening knives, Nick is also down to earth and is super chill! Will be coming back whenever I need something sharpened. read more

My CUTCO knives were bad. I bought them when my daughter was a baby had them sharpened the last time she was two years old. She just turned 11. I looked at Nick up and reached out to him on his website. He got back to me quickly set up a time and I was able to get them done the same day. They are so sharp. I really need to be careful using them now. read more

I have never been able to get the art of sharpening my own knives down very well so I looked around and found Nick at A Cutting Edge and was more than pleased . Nick came to my house, picked up the knives and had them returned within a few hours. Not only did he sharpen them to razor fine precision but he repaired a nasty little knick in one of them and all for an incredible price. I highly recommend calling and getting your knives back to the way they were when you first bought them! Thanks Nick. read more

I will be referring all my friends and family to him for their blade sharpening needs. read more

Nick is fantastic. My knives are as sharp as can be. He also took the time to talk through the details of my knives and how to maintain the knives. I highly recommend using Cutting Edge. read more

Nick is a really "sharp" guy (pun intended), he sharpened my go to chef knife to a level I have never experienced before (in over 20 years). It is of a brand that is very hard steel, so Nick worked on the knife until it could slice a tomato from the outer skin without any difficulty. It is amazing, I had given up long ago and bought a separate serrated knife for tomatoes. Now I am going to take all of my knives to Nick, even the ones with "nicks" in them (another intended pun, but really he can fix many sorts of knife damage and even reshape knives in some cases). I can hardly wait to begin to enjoy effortless cutting again from all of my knives! read more

I've taken my knives to different shops for sharpening and none of them came back as sharp as with Nick from A Cutting Edge.

Kept me updated with texts and clear communication. Top notch service. Highly recommended! read more
