Great experience today at Serenity knives. I visited for the first time for sharpening and repair and did not expect them to be located on a residential street, but it is in the Heights so no concerns. I got a friendly greeting and immediate service. They looked over one knife that was bent and warned me it could snap but they would try their best. They took down my cell phone and said my knives would be done within an hour. About 45 minutes later I got a text. When I got back, the bent knife was straight and the rest were sharp. Super easy and convenient! read more

I found this place on Yelp. What a fantastic job. I got all my knives in better-than-new condition. I didn't have to wait, but only less than 10 min, but they are swamped. I even bought a knife there. They have a great selection of Japanese knives. I really recommend this place. While I was waiting I saw several chefs dropping their knives so that means if a professional goes there it must be very good. read more

This place is the only place I would take my knives to be sharpened in Houston. Everyone is knowledgeable and professional and I have very nice Japanese knives so I would not got just anywhere. Well worth the price if you care about your knives or if you have high end knives. read more

Awesome work and got it done quickly also. Shops a little confusing to get too but work is worth it

This is the #1 place to go in Houston if you are a knife guy. I'm personally interested in high end folders, and they have a large assortment of USA made folding knives (ZT, Kershaw, Spyderco, Benchmade) as well as other high quality Chinese folders (WE, Civivi, Kizer) The staff and Russell, the owner, are grade A knife nerds like me who are passionate about all things blades, very sociable and friendly, and highly knowledgeable. Took me one trip to know I'd be a regular. A+++ establishment! read more

Serenity Knives is an awesome place. I felt like a kid in a candy store. They meet you at the gate and walk you through their blacksmithing and blade sharpening area. The craftsmen are hard at work. Some of your favorite Houston area chefs get their knives sharpened here. They also make custom knives, hatchets, even bottle openers. The show room is in the back. It is a sight to behold. All the best knife manufacturers have their goods for sale here. Staff is highly knowledgeable about types of steel, wood, blade shapes, history.... I learned a lot. Friendly folks too. I bought a beautiful Case folding pocket knife and my first Spiderco folder. The Case knife will be for wittling. The Spiderco will be my cardboard destroyer at work. Can't wait to go back. read more

ross Serenity was first to respond to my Yelp request, offered immediate service and since I'm mobility challenged, came to my car to pick up my set of steak knives to be sharpened. In about 20 minutes returned the knives to me at my car, took care of billing on the spot. Knives were sharpened nicely and considering the service I considered the price a bargain. I recommend Serenity Knives without reservation. Ross Bonny read more

Proud to say that I purchased my first quality EDC knife from Serenity Knives. I walked in just checking out what they have and doing my homework since since I'm new to the knife community and had an idea of a few knives I wanted as my first quality EDC. I usually go some where check some knives out that I had my eye on and ask question at different stores to learn why I would pick one knife over a another. Then I sit on it for a day or to to make sure I don't impulse by something. I had every intention of doing that as I walked in into there shop, but i appreciate how they nerded out with me answering all my questions and making sure I picked the prefect knife for me and what I needed. Lo and behold I walked out with a purchase I don't regret; a Benchmade Mini Freek. There customer service and openness made me very comfortable open up and trust there opinion and not to just sell me something. In my opinion there normal guys you can have a conversation with that know there stuff about knives for sure. Also don't let the looks fool you, it's a small place in a neighborhood which is different but they have a nice set up that does the job! Definitely going to follow up and try out there sharpening services up next! read more

Great knife sharpening service They also have an excellent selection of knives for purchase

Amazing work. My father left behind an old rusty fixed blade knife he used about 70 years ago while a Boy Scout. The handle had even crumbled away. Serenity Knives completely refurbished it. Beautiful handle. Razor sharp. No more rust. This knife is now a family heirloom. Thank you, Serenity Knives. Awesome. Well done. Gracias for the craftsmanship. See the photos below of before and after. read more

I came here the other day and met Daniel and Russell. Daniel sharpened a Benchmade knife of mine as well as a cleaver. He put a perfectly mirrored, polished edge on my benchmade hidden canyon. I can honestly say that it's sharper than new. Equally as good of a job on the cleaver!! Both blades were sharpened in about 25 minutes. Blades 6 inches or less, one side, cost $15 to sharpen. Blades over 6 inches, one side, cost $20 to sharpen. I'm assuming this may potentially be a case by case situation depending on style and condition of blade. Both Daniel and Russell make knives in house. There is a showroom with pre made knives ready to sell. Half of the inventory are knives from manufacturers like benchmade, buck knives, Kramer, and Miyabi. That's just to name a few. They have everything from tactical folders to cutlery. The other half of the inventory are knives they've made. They're all incredibly well made and beautiful to look at and to hold. They also will make custom knives to order!!! I know at some point I'm going to have to get something custom done! I saw things in the showroom that I never knew I needed before, like the stubby handle on a chefs knife. Both Russell and Daniel are clearly very passionate and knowledgeable bladesmiths! read more

Two of my Shun's had what looked like chips out of them. I'm not going to say it's my mom's fault b/c she just didn't a month visiting (so I'm just going to type it). (Mom, if you read this, I'm half kidding; don't get your feelings hurt). It didn't take me long to realize this was beyond my hone sharpening abilities so started the search for a pro. Serenity obviously has a great rating and i see why. When I approached the rear workshop, Daniel saw me coming and waved me in. He quickly looked over my entire arsenal of kitchen knives, advised which needed sharpening and provided some education for going forward. (Proud to say I only hand wash my knives and keep them on a magnet and not in some block). Fast service, I was able to get some stuff done in my car and Daniel had them ready for me within an hour. I'll be back. read more

Made my first purchase from here today and I'm sure it won't be my last. Daniel was very helpful, welcoming and knowledgeable! Their showroom made me want to buy every knife they had. read more

Serenity Knives - FANTASTIC JOB!I haven't had a really good sharpen to my babies since I was in college! - Knife Sharpening Near Me - Houston, Texas

Dropped off 2 shun knives to be sharpened here, came back at close as I never received a call saying they had finished. Noticed at home that both the knives had come back with reshaped tips (probably had been chipped and reshaped). Also, one of them was not noticeably sharper than when I brought it in, as I still had trouble cutting vegetables post "sharpening" *Edit - Brought both knives in again after talking with Russell and he sharpened them and did a great job restoring them. I do wish that it had been brought to my attention up front, but they did a great job making everything right. read more

Best spot in Houston for sharpening and the knives they make are literally pieces of art. This team is gifted, nice and quick!

Already a cut above any other knife shop in houston, tx. pun intended. but wait, theres more... Daniel sharpened my misono ux10 and showed me how to properly maintain the edge. I intend on going back just to hang out with these craftsmen and learning from them. read more

My wife needed her sewing scissors sharpened and after some research I found Serenity Knives. We went there this morning and were greeted right away. Showed them the scissors and they got started sharpening immediately. While they were sharpening the scissors we chatted with Russell while looking at some of the magnificent knifes they have made. Russell is extremely knowledgeable and we really enjoyed chatting with him. It took less than 10 minutes for the other person (David I think his name was) to sharpen the scissors and WOW are they ever sharp! I highly recommend their service and from the looks of the knives they made they have excellent skills in forging. read more

I have this amazing WWII combat knife that has real history. It had some damage and really needed a professional restoration. I trusted other Yelp reviews and brought my treasure to Serenity Knives. These guys were clearly knowledgeable about this knife. They described the construction and what my restoration options were and actually recommended the lower cost restoration to preserve the character of this knife. When I picked up the knife I was surprised to see the blade was beautiful. Exactly what I wanted. I highly recommend them for any and all knives and tool sharpening. read more
