We arranged a date, and he brought his van to my neighborhood for a Knife and Tool Party. I'm still getting thank-you notes from my grateful neighbors. He takes your knives, and texts you when they're done. My high-carbon Sabatier and Henckel knives are beautifully sharp, as is my lawnmower. We'll be calling him back every year, I think. If you've got a place for him to park his van, I encourage you to have a sharpening party in your neighborhood. Bobby's a super professional and friendly guy, and his wife is beyond sweet. They're a good team, and they do good work.

I recently purchased a new pocket knife and was looking for somebody who could take the factory…read moreedge and make it as razer sharp as I knew it could be. Patti's website stated she sharpened hunting knives and other edges so I figured my knife with its 3.2" blade shouldn't be a problem. Patti was polite enough at first but became a little standoffish when I asked her if she could sharpen my knife. I could immediately tell she didn't want to sharpen it. She mentioned a previous Yelp review and explained that after that person she doesn't like to take pocket knives. I asked her why the poor review to which she replied "I don't know". Later reading on Yelp revealed that she marred the blades finish when she put it in the clamp. Still she took the knife and cut a few slices of paper with it. As I previously stated it still has its factory edge and could easily cut the paper, so she handed the knife back to me stating the edge was still good, and to come back once it had taken a little bit of abuse. While I understand her caution with the previous bad reviews I felt mentioning it was a little crass. I also got the impression she didn't want to deal with my single knife when the guy ahead of me had just handed her a sack full of cutlery presumably from a nearby restaurant. I wish I could speak to her workmanship as I feel she would have done an excellent job in bringing my knife to its full potential. I will gladly bring my own kitchen knives to her if she is ever in the north shore area as that seems to be her speciality. But for single pocket knives its probably better to just get your own whetstone and do it yourself.

If you are like me, your Wusthof kitchen knives are as dull as garden tools. The solution: Patti…read moreof On The Edge! She makes the rounds of Formaggio Kitchen, various farmer's markets and Whole Foods locations. To see where she will be next, check out her online calendar: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=ontheedgeknife@gmail.com&ctz=America/New_York She uses an Edge Pro, and $700+ hand sharpening system where the various grit stones are drawn across the blade's edge in a circular motion, as opposed to the more traditional opposite, at exactly the right angle for your blade (19 degrees for a Wusthof Classic). So if you have one of those trendy, expensive Japanese knives, she can get the angle right. Having researched the subject online, this will give you a much sharper and longer-lasting knife edge than using one of those lazy electric sharpener (which is what most of the shops that sharpen knives use). If you are lucky enough to have some serious kitchen knife art, I would definitely recommend that you have them sharpened by Patti. Not cheap at $15 for a big blade, and $10 for a small, but worth it to me. But they will last a good while (she recommend the "tomato test" to determine when to get them sharpened again). She can also sharpen your serrated bread knife. You will find her parked in a distinctive white utility van (has a air circulator mounted on top and a sign on the rear door) outside of Whole Foods, etc. Get there early and come back later to pick up your knives. She turned around my Chef's knife and two pairing knives in 30 minutes (while I was distracting her with chatter). They are slicing paper like it is butter now. And say hello to Patti's coworker, a 47 year-old African Grey Parrot, who can't fly, but seems to enjoy jumping onto a pillow and rebounding up into the air!
