I dropped off my scissors (3 pairs) in the morning and they were done about an hour later. The owner called me as soon as they were done. So happy to have sharp scissors again! I was also pleased to find out they offer sharpening of knives and garden tools too. What a great service and the prices were more than fair. It was only $26 for all three scissors!

I had to add a third review in response to the owner's response to my second review, which I wrote…read moreafter they tarnished my knives. First, They claimed they haven't offered the knife special of $30 for fives knives in over 15 years- except my first review of them was written in 2013, and I took my knives there a few times after that. I always got the special which might have gone up to $35. So that is a lie on their part. The price has increased significantly in only a couple years. Again, the price is one thing, and I wouldn't have complained if they hadn't tarnished my knives. My knives were all tarnished as shown in the photo and their response implies that it was somehow my fault? That they would "never" have done that but if I still don't believe them they will polish them for free? What kind of a response is that? That is how the knives looked when I got them back. How would I do that to the knives myself? I hand wash them. I don't hold them over open flames. All my other knives are fine. I'm sorry I love supporting local businesses but this is just terrible.

My knives were not dull when I gave them to him as I tune and do some sharpening myself. I gave him two thick old and one newer German steel kitchen knives, a Japanese steel chef knife, a camp/hunting knife and my son's great uncle's heirloom scout knife of a very hard carbon steel to sharpen. Each had specific geometry re-edge requests and certain blade, heel or point damage/use issues to fix. The final products were edges sharper then new that literally glinted in the sunlight. As a side note Scott is also a very personable guy who enjoys and takes pride in his craft. An old chef, when I was 10, once told me you'll only cut yourself with a dull knife because it slips off what it was cutting.
