Thank you for sharpening the knives, but 1) it was very inconvenient to miss you when your shop was…read moreclosed during supposedly open times (no note hung up outside on why or when shop was re-opening later that day), and 2) having a political sign telling customers who to vote for is not appreciated at all. Due to the latter I will be taking my business elsewhere, as there's no need to mix your politics with serving your paying customers.

I went here about a year ago to see if they might be interested in making a custom tsuba for my…read morekatana. The smith was a total jerk and seemed to not know the term "tsuba," either, even though he was determined to make me feel the idiot. In spite of all this I purchased a shiny axe with a dark oak handle from them, in part because I wanted to support a local business and in part because it seemed balanced and looked nice. It was not cheap. Now one year later I see that the chrome plating now has some black spots that will not rub out, even though it has been sitting in my bedroom the whole time and I have not used it to cut anything. A quick google search finds that: "This problem of black spots which you are facing seems related to base material defect which you might have failed to notice during pre cleaning stage and the same is appearing over a period of time once plating is completed." In summary- this blade smith sucks.

I had been getting my shears sharpened by Jeff for about a year, when I finally decided to buy a…read morepair of shears from him. They are fantastic, and he customized them for me on the spot. They are so comfortable and function perfectly. He keeps a record of when you've had them sharpened and checks in to see make sure you stay on schedule with getting them sharpened. The shears are high quality Takumi Japanese steel, and totally stand up against the bigger brands like Hattori Hanzo. My next pair of shears will definitely be coming from Shear Empire!

Unlike the other review listed here, I received an estimate before work began.

Unfortunately, Dewalt no longer makes belt-sanders, so parts or a replacement unit are no longer available. I really liked this sander and has performed flawlessly for years. I originally paid about $250.00 for it. L&L rescued it from the trash-can by essentially rebuilding it from an old unit they had in the back which acted as a "parts donor". They charged $100.00 for a LOT of work, and essentially turned it into a new, reconditioned unit (including a new housing that was cracked and enemies a new power cable). While $100 is a fairly large sum of money, it was well with worth the investment considering the tremendous amount of work they did. When I picked up the unit, the old parts where returned in a box, and all services were explained to me. They were very professional, and I am very pleased for their services!
