My knives are amazing!! I've had my Wustof knives for over 15 years...Dave did an incredible job!! They're like new!

You got a bunch of old knives in a drawer. You have a go-to that has somehow kept an edge no matter how badly you treat it and it's even having trouble with the tomatoes lately. Well you're in luck. Instead of planning that trip to Bed, Bath, & Beyond to spend hundreds on a new set, why not use the ones got? Step 1: grab all the knives you have and put them on the counter, Kondo style. Don't worry about the ones that don't spark joy, because Dave's about to change all of that. Step 2: wrap them in a dish towel or put them in an old Amazon box for safe transport. Step 3: message DK Sharp and let him know you need help! That's it. With a short trip to Manhattan Beach all of your cutlery problems will be solved. Quick turnaround. Great value. And most importantly, quality service. read more

Need your knives sharpened? Stop looking and just take them to DK Sharp. Very courteous on the phone. Took them over on a Sunday around 12p. He told us he'd have them later that day. We expected that meant 6 or 7. Nope, at 1p we got the text they were done. He was able to take a nick out of one of our Globals as well as sharpen the rest of the set like samurai swords. Will be taking all of our knives here and recommending to all our friends. Great work. Great communication. read more

OUTSTANDING service all around. And provided some great tips on hope to keep the knives sharp and around for a long time...

I have just been sprung from the Kitchen Prison of Dull and Unhappy Knives. It kinda creeps up on you; you keep switching to the other, sharper knife, back and forth until they are all dull as a weeklong staycation at the DMV. No more. David is a craftsman who takes obvious care with and pride in his work; he explained each step of the process, and even gave me an impromptu lesson on using a sharpening steel (watching Gordon Ramsey had intimidated me, I must admit). His prices are remarkably low, not only in terms of other pay-by-the-inch sharpening services, but also for the level of quality he provides. And dig this: when I told him I was going to be using one of the knives in prep to make a roasted carrot and chipotle soup, he reached into his pantry and offered me a can of chipotles in adobo sauce! Remarkable. The knives are so sharp, I could become a mohel... but I think I'll stick to the kitchen, thanks. I can't recommend him more highly. read more

I had my Wusthof knife set sharpened by Dave recently. 1) He should change the name of his company to DK "Very" Sharp! 2) He is a pleasure to deal with. read more

Just dropped off my knives and I'm already so impressed with the customer service. Dave is accommodating, courteous, and even said he would oil our cutting block if needed. You cannot go wrong with him! 11/10 would recommend! read more

Dave's knife sharpening business is top notch. He charges $7/knife and honest on what needs sharpening and what doesn't. He is very passionate about his industry. Dropped off the knives in the morning and was done sharpening 8 of them in 1 hour. Says if taken care of the sharpness should last approx. 2 years. read more

Awesome dude and awesome work. Most friendly person you'll ever meet with easy access. Would recommend .

Dave did a great job sharpening my chef's knife, and he was very accommodating while we waited (which was not too long). Make sure to call to confirm a time, as his operation is out of his house, and not a store. read more

Very quick and did a great job. He works out of his house so you need to confirm he will be there but there was never an issue of me having to wait for him. He enjoys his work and was really interested in the items I dropped off. He offered to do them same day which was nice since I was giving him all of my knives. He texts which is very convenient. Prices are great. I definitely recommend!! read more

Dave knows his stuff and he cares. What else could you ask for? Oh, speed. Yup. Fair price. Check. He's my new guy. So nice to see the internet work for things like this. read more

Restored my grandfather's folding knife I destroyed as a kid. Straightened the blade, sharpened it and even polished the gold in the handle as well as oiling the folding mechanism. Worked on another knife and both were razor sharp read more

David did a great job with my knives. I try to support small businesses when I can. To my surprise, Yelps first recommendation when I searched "knife sharpening service" in my area was DK Sharp. David responded to my message within minutes and I was able to run my knives over to him the same day. I only had a couple knives and he was able to do them on the spot. He allowed me to hang out on his porch and in about 5 minutes my knives were sharp and ready to go! Thanks David, I will certainly be back. read more

Dave did a fantastic job with our knives. He's sharpened them and we had them back in 24 hours! His prices are more than fair and just a really nice guy to deal with! read more

Dave did a great job! Very quick too. He got my knives done and called me within a couple of hours. Highly recommend!

Dave was a nice enough guy and very professional but he is not the person to sharpen sissors properly, especially left handed. He's probably fine with knives and other one blade items. read more

Dave not only did a fantastic job with our knives at a fair price, he managed to squeeze me in on short notice right before Thanksgiving! Fantastic service all around. Highly recommended! read more

This is what customer service is all about! After a total failure by Knife Aid, I decided to find a local person to sharpen my knives. Fast service and an excellent job. read more

Great service, nice guy, and my knives are the sharpest they've ever been! I own a dog food company called Zuri Food and I need my chef's knife to be in great shape. Thx!! read more

I was sorely disappointed! My neighbor told me about DK Sharp because my regular guy was out of the country doing his service. First David smelled like he had just crawled out of a gin bottle and then he bragged and carried on about how wonderful and experienced he was. He did an OK job on the knives, but it was not worth all the unpleasantness. I will go back to my regular. read more

So Awesome!! My wife loves that her knives are sharp. Daveis was a really nice guy. Excellent service, quick 1 day turnaround. Highly recommended! read more

David is a master at sharpening knives. If I could give him 6 stars I would! I have not had much luck with knife sharpening in the past. I took my knives to Williams Sonoma and they actually made them duller. David really knows what he is doing and he's fast, affordable and extremely experienced in his craft. I HIGHLY recommend DK sharp and will be taking all of my knives here from now on! read more

Dave was awesome! Answered my call right away and was able to get my knives sharpened that day! He even offered to pick them up and drop off if that was more convenient for us (as he drives by our neighborhood daily), which it was and such a lovely offer. The knives were done in only a couple hours and are the sharpest we've ever had them! Will definitely be using Dave for all our knife sharpening needs from now on. Thanks, Dave!! read more

Dave is awesome. I brought all my knives for sharpening and he examined them and told me which ones needed sharpening and which ones didn't. He explained best ways to use and store them. Prices were fair and reasonable. They were ready for pickup next day and wrapped for safe return home. I've already sent friends his way. read more

I called David and it was super easy to make an appointment, he was on time, did an amazing job and was surprisingly reasonable. High quality work from a first rate craftsman! read more

Fast, but great work, easy to meet up with, and affordable. Also a very friendly guy. I know this is where I'll be getting my knives sharpened in the future read more

Dave Kohn did an amazing job on our Global knives. And, Dave also did a fantastic job of bringing back our 15 year old, treasured gardening clipper. I don't think any of the knives were this sharp when we bought them! Dave delivered the knives before we expected them to be done. Dave is the ultimate professional and an incredibly nice guy! read more

I visited Dave from DK Sharp at the Redondo farmers market. I took him a large chefs knife that had never been sharp since I bought it 3 or 4 years ago. Dave sharpened it expertly. He is very friendly and is also very helpful answering any question I had regarding the knife or maintenance. I will definitely return with more knives. read more

The very best fastest service at great prices. My go to guy for knife sharpening. Dave is a true professional.

David is fast and professional. He gave life to my dull knives and for a very great price! I will definitely be going back to him in the future. read more

Talk about a knife master!! Dave took our dull and even a few rusted knives and cleavers, restored them to their sharp glory!! He's got a great personality, will take the time to explain the process, and even made a house call! Excellent work Dave! read more

Dave sharpened my whole knife set and did an absolutely excellent job! These knives are more sharp than they ever have been and I couldn't be happier. Not only is his work top notch, Dave is fast and thorough to communicate with, giving and reasonable in his pricing, and great at working with your schedule. It feels odd to say I look forward to my knives becoming dull again just so that I can take them back to Dave! read more

Found this great fellow at the farmers market and the following week brought him 6 of my Friedr. Dick cutlery knives, which one was serrated. Not only did the serrated come out as good as new the other 5 were all detailed and seemed sharper than when I bought them. Ill never pretend I know how to sharpen my knives at home ever again. True old school artisan, cool local dude. Hit him up! read more

Davis absolutely fabulous and knowledgeable about knives. He transformed 14 of my old dull knives into working, usable utensils again! You don't really know how dull your knives get until you get them sharpened. Highly recommend Dave and his work. read more
