Belated appreciation post for this place and its skillful and helpful blade master Kenneth…read more You don't often hear "we'll make it work" these days when you call a shop for the first time to ask about their services. But I got that and more when I called about sharpening my lawn mower blade. This place is a gem and so is Kenneth, the proprietor and a former chef. He knows his stuff, and shared anecdotes about Anthony Bourdain, whose portrait is on the wall. There are so many cool things to see here. I got my kitchen knives sharpened as well and it all only set me back about 48 bucks. When you need to find "old Austin" go see Kenneth and get your blades professionally cared for.

We found Gary and he was able to sharpen my boning knife and chef dull knife. He was super response and provided an amazing service.

My chefs knife is so sharp now. Amazing work, thank you Gary.

Michael was very responsive, gave me same-day service at no extra charge, and even picked up and dropped off my knives for an extra $20! My dull knives were sharper than they've ever been in less than a day for a lot less money than I would have spent shipping them off. Michael does the work himself and took time to explain the different sharpening methods he would use based on the steel composition and degree of my blades. He's highly professional, considerate, and fairly priced. It's unusual to find someone that takes such great care. Do yourself and your kitchen a favor and give Michael a call!

I first found Seriously Fast Sharpening on Yelp, before seeing they had a website with a contact…read morenumber. I texted them what I needed and if they had same-day appointments, which I was able to schedule within the hour much to my delight. They sent me their prices and confirmed how much I would be charged. They shared with me their address and drop off location as there's no where to wait. I drove to a local coffee shop nearby to wait. From drop-off to when I received their text to say they were finished took about 30 min. Pretty darn fast. They sent me payment details and reconfirmed how much I owed. I drove back, picked up my hatchet, Venmo'd them, and that was it. I'm glad that they're located in north Austin and not too far of a drive from where I live. I took off two stars due to quality concerns. Although the edge of the blade is sharp, they didn't sharpen the edge into a convex edge or at least ask if they should sharpen the edge that way. My axe had never been sharpened before but a convex edge would have been most appropriate for my use case. They also didn't sharpen the entire blade. From my pictures, you can see that they missed the top corner of the blade (rounded). You can also tell that the edge isn't centered. The axe was bought this way, but I expected Seriously Fast Sharpening to center it or at least make mention of it. All in all, a 3-star experience. I appreciated their promptness and quick communication, but I expected more in terms of craftsmanship quality. I may try them again for some smaller blades in the future.

It took several minutes for the husband or wife to acknowledge I walked in the store even though I was the only one in the store. Once she was making the keys for me she started talking about crazy things and her political views which was a big turn off I couldn't get out of there fast enough. I wish they had a big red hat on the business sign I would've not gone in in the first place. I will give them two stars because the keys work but be mindful that unless I'm wearing a big red hat don't talk to me about your big red hat stuff. Your views are your views and it's best to keep it that way when you're running a business. Don't make people uncomfortable when they come in to do business with you.

I'm trying to think of anything you can buy these days that comes with a true lifetime guarantee…read more I got nuthin' --- except Cutco knives. Cutco knives are made in the USA to last, and the Cutco company believes so strongly in its product that each knife is "guarantee forever" including free sharpening. What?! Until recently, I did not have Cutco knives but, just as I was contemplating an upgrade of my kitchen knives, my sweet Mom gifted me with the set she'd had for years but no longer used. Did the guarantee convey to a new owner? Were these older knives (circa 1970s) eligible for free sharpening? What about the French Chef knife that had a chink missing from the blade? Could it be fixed? When I called the Cutco Kitchen in Rollingwood (in the shopping center where the Post Office is) the answer to all my questions was, without hesitation or question, "yes." I took the knives in today and the experience couldn't have been better. It's a small shop but has a very wide array of Cutco products: all the knives, kitchen utensils, spices, gardening tools, and other handy household items. Although there was only one sales person present, I was the only customer so I had her attention immediately. The sales person examined each knife and found one that had a broken point, which I had not noticed. They would mail it and the damaged French Chef knife to the company for any repairs or replacement. The other knives were sharpened at the shop. I brought my non-Cutco knives, too, because they only charge $5 per knife for sharpening. This took about 10 minutes or so, more than enough time for me to pop by the USPO and Great Harvest Bread Co. where I got an amazing loaf of bread (but that's another Yelp review). Their process is to call me when the replacement/repaired knifes are ready for pick-up, which should be about 10 days. Yes, the Cutco products are pricey but I believe they are worth it. My Mom used her Cutco knives for about 50 years before passing them on to me and I suspect they will be around long after I no longer need them. In Cutco's case, you definitely get what you pay for.

If you take the knives to the store they'll ship them for free. Also, their store provides the best and very friendly service. You can't ask for a better value.
