Nice and efficient knife sharpening! I messaged this home based knife sharpener about sharpening two chef's knives, and I'm not kidding, the job was done 2-3 hours from that point. Very professional, friendly, and took the time to answer my questions, and of course, the edges came back razor sharp. 10/10. Would use again, and definitely would recommend. read more

Looking around at various places, I settled on One Sharp Piece. Cecilio communicated well and had a fast response to my inquiries. Pricing was very good. It was easy and convenient to drop off my knives to his house and he was able to return the finished product in a timely fashion. Usually can be an hour or within the day depending on how busy he is. I'll be back tonuse his services again. read more

Cecilio is a fast responder when you're asking for a quote. Very communicative and friendly. Great customer service, he tried to honor our agreed amount since he cared more on customer satisfaction than few extra dollars, that speaks volume about him as a great business owner. Located next to Alviso area What caught my eye for this business is that he charges $1/inch for sharpening which is a highly competitive rate. There are also additional services such as extra $5 for repairs if you have nicks which takes extra time. Dropped off 3 knives and wow I'm amazed how reflective the edges were. I never seen my pocket knife this shiny and sharp. He really knows what he's doing and took great care of them. read more

Man this guy is flexible and makes stuff work. I will use him in the future for sure. I recently found my first knife I ever bought from like 14 years ago and I goofed on the shape of because I was trying to change it from a tanto to spear point. I know that's dumb. Found this knife again after years, and he was able to do some simple grinding and sharpening. Legit can shave with how sharp it is and the point is beautiful. saved my knife 100%.

I had a specialty vegetable cleaver that I needed repaired and sharpened. It had been used by someone to cut something they shouldn't have and there was a nice chunk missing. I brought it into the store and dropped it off. It was ready in a matter of days and the price was more than reasonable, despite them having to do some extra work to get rid of the chip. What j I appreciate it is that they did the repair in a manner that maintained the integrity of the Knife when they could've just had their way with it. I wouldn't have known the difference. They also have a nice variety of kitchen accessories and I was able to pick up a knife sheath to protect everyone from the now razor Sharp clever.

Now, you can get the same thing done at Newark Farmers Market! They are conveniently located and you can shop at Costco or the Farmers market while you wait. They have a small booth that is easy to find and have two tables packed with different sharpening equipment. We brought 4 knives, kitchen scissors, and even an axe. The cost was very low with the highest priced items being the axe and scissors for $10 each. When we got home just now my wife said "whoo, these are sharp!" The edges are amazing on everything we had sharpened and I don't doubt for a second I could cut razor thin slices of tomato using the axe. We used one of our newly sharpened kitchen knives to slice a farmers market tomato and there is a strangely satisfying feeling to drag your knife gently across and cut super thin slices. In addition to knives, scissors, and axes when we arrived we also saw a Leatherman multitools knife being sharpened so you can bring almost anything with a cutting edge and get it sharpened. Thank you for providing this service in Fremont! We will be back with more things to be sharpened!

Pick up was quick and easy, and the knives are well sharpened. Two of my knives are polished to a shiny finish, and William was able to maintain that shine. The knives cut so much better now, and I'm sure I'll be back in the future. A few notes - the gate to the backyard is in the cul de sac (not the main street that the front door is on), so when you send the text letting them know that you've arrived, they'll meet you at that side gate. They only accept cash or Venmo. They don't give you the final price or pickup time until the work is done, I think because William needs to assess the knives. The price felt fair to me given the quality of work, just something to be aware of!

During the visit, Mike also asked about the screen, which had been replaced a few years ago at a different location (which I won't name). He pointed out that the previous repair used a lower-quality screen rather than a genuine one, which finally explained some issues we'd noticed back then. Mike replaced it with a proper screen, and now the phone feels like new--perfect for my daughter to keep using. Since he did such a great job on my wife's phone, I decided to go ahead and replace the battery on my own iPhone (12 Pro Max) as well, since it was down to 69% maximum capacity.
