I'm overdue in writing a review for Albert…read more When Bob from SKS moved to go fly fish with Brad Pitt, I was suddenly without a knife guy. Then Albert just casually walked onto the scene and so I thought, let's bring the global in for a sharpening because even if he destroys it, I won't be mad. I'll keep it short and simply say the Albert is definitely my knife guy, I bring him all my knives.... Pocket knives, huge cleavers, the stuff from Japan..... yep all the steel goes on dates with Albert. Oh and he always is selling cool new/vibtage/local knifes in stor

To the Owner- You damaged something that genuinely mattered to me. These knives carried me through…read moremy time as a professional chef and were returned in a condition that permanently altered them. I cannot replace the history attached to these blades. The refund does not change that loss. I brought several MAC knives in for sharpening and was quoted a two-week turnaround. They were ultimately held for over four weeks. During that time, I was told the delay was due to the owner's daughter being in town, which I understood and accommodated. Two days before pickup, I was told the knives had barely been started. The following morning, I received a call saying the work was complete. Later, I was told the sharpening had all been done the day before pickup, despite the knives being held for over a month. While the edges were sharp, the knives were returned with numerous dark, pepper-like surface marks across the blade faces, particularly near the heel and along the flats. These marks and pits were not present when I dropped them off. Washing with soap and water did not change them, and they appear permanent. I am a professional chef and take meticulous care of my knives, so changes in condition are immediately noticeable to me. Given the extended delay, the condition the knives were returned in, and how the concern was initially handled, I have lost confidence in the service. I had previously left a five-star review, which makes this outcome particularly disappointing. I would not feel comfortable bringing additional knives here or recommending this shop to others who rely on their knives professionally.

Rob saw that a wood sleeve for one of the knives was busted and he fixed it at no charge. I also had him come out and look at refinishing a table, and he was extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

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.
