He quickly set up in our backyard (he brings his own equipment) and got to work. In about 30 minutes he sharpened 11 knives for us and fixed the tip of a blade we had bent. You absolutely can't beat the service, price, and convenience! I'll be a repeat customer for sure!

I recently got my first Japanese knife (a gyuto) and noticed a spot on the blade that isn't as…read moresharp as the rest. Since I'm not experienced with sharpening yet (though I want to learn with a whetstone eventually), I started looking for someone local to sharpen it for me. Out of all the places I found, Apex Knife Co stood out the most. I had seen the owner's video sharpening a Japanese knife, and every customer review I came across was positive. There was another person highly recommended on Reddit, but some people mentioned issues with his attitude. Since I really value good customer service, I decided to go with Apex instead. I emailed them explaining that I was new to Japanese knives and didn't have a frame of reference for optimal sharpness. The owner replied promptly and invited me to stop by anytime. When I went in, he confirmed that there was indeed a spot on my blade that wasn't as sharp, and he offered to sharpen it for me. I agreed, and he did an excellent job for a very reasonable price. He was also friendly and clearly knowledgeable, which makes me feel confident about bringing my knife back in the future. Overall, I'm really glad I chose Apex Knife Co and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for quality sharpening paired with great service.

I guess I could've lived with it, but of course when I went to use the one they sold me the string started snapping immediately. That's when I realized it wasn't even the same model head and it was old cheap cord. They didn't even clean up the used model they gave me. Mind you mine was brand new without any grass buildup on it or anything . At the very least, they could've put the brand new head (that they handed me back in the bag) back on the used one they sold me. Just feel like I could've been treated better. Being a first-time customer it left a bad taste and I won't be back.

I took a Glock 17 slide with a stripped screw in an rmr to these guys thinking it'd be a simple fix…read morefor their gunsmith. They invoiced a half hour of work with the caveat it may take an hour. I was slightly put off by this thinking it couldn't take more than a few minutes. But ultimately I was prepared to pay with the idea that a gunsmith could complete the task without damaging or marring my optic. I dropped it off on a Friday and they said they'd have it ready by Saturday or Tuesday of the following week. Saturday came and went, Tuesday came and went and ultimately I called them on Wednesday. I was told they didn't have the tooling to complete the job and they would need to order the tools to complete it. Later that Wednesday, I received a call from their gunsmith Nick who said he was going to have a buddy help him out so he could have it to me sooner rather than later to which I expressed my gratitude. I showed up to pick it up the following Thursday afternoon. I opened the case and my optic was covered in tape and the guy at the front desk said they'd be charging me for 2 half hour increments of work at $35 per increment. He said that it totaled $90 so I asked if the 2 increments at $35 equaled $70. He said, "yeah $70." I unwrapped the optic and it was operational but marred up more than I would have expected. The guy at the front said he had to take a dremel tool to it. It was obvious the tool had slipped a few times gashing the body of the optic. This kind of work is what I would expect if I had undertaken the job myself but not what I expected from a professional hence the reason I opted to pay someone else for the service. After that I said one thing to the guy at the front desk as respectfully as I could. "Is the price negotiable considering the damage?" The guy immediately threw the invoice on the table, said "just take it" with anger, and walked into the back. I closed everything up and left. When I got home I told my wife and even expressed if they had called me and said, " hey man this thing was a disaster and we put some gashes in the body of the optic but its operational and we got the screw out so even though we were gonna charge you for an hour worth of work we'll charge you for a half hour or give you a discount." I would've been totally understanding. However this was not the case... I can't speak for their other work or services but that was my first and last experience with this business. Hope this can be useful to anyone else.
