    Eric sharpening my knives

    Gary's responded to me quickly (I love a prompt response) and I had an appt booked for two days later (not having to wait too long is another plus). Eric showed up a couple minutes before the scheduled time (I love timeliness) and he was friendly and courteous. I gave him my bundle of knives (every cutting knife I owned (steak knives, too), also serrated bread knife and scissors) and he went to work. He set himself up on the sidewalk outside my house and had his own power source with him. He was finished within 30 minutes. My knives are awesome! I paid by Venmo. Super happy with the experience from start to finish!

    A few of my beauties :-)

    I have to admit I am a knife junkie. I'be probably spent more money on Wustof knives than I have on my cookware. I normally sharpen myself, but this whole working from home means cooking a LOT more and my poor knives were feeling a little overused and dull. Gary to the rescue! Gary setup shop with a portable table outside my house, carefully and expertly sharpened my precious cutters (along with some serrated knives and shears too), arriving on time and completing the whole job of 12 knives in 30 minutes. This service is soooo worth getting your knives sharpened to precision with no hooks or dull spots that can happen on my DYI version. Very affordable too - this is my new go-to and I highly recommend

    Such a great price and I so much better than buying new knives when your old knives are still in good shape.

    Gary saved my beloved Sudoku knife after I dulled it trying to open a coconut. $8 price- reasonable! He's the best!

    Gary did an amazing job on my apparel shears. They cut through fabric like butter now. Will definitely go back!
