I'm overdue in writing a review for Albert…read more When Bob from SKS moved to go fly fish with Brad Pitt, I was suddenly without a knife guy. Then Albert just casually walked onto the scene and so I thought, let's bring the global in for a sharpening because even if he destroys it, I won't be mad. I'll keep it short and simply say the Albert is definitely my knife guy, I bring him all my knives.... Pocket knives, huge cleavers, the stuff from Japan..... yep all the steel goes on dates with Albert. Oh and he always is selling cool new/vibtage/local knifes in stor

To the Owner- You damaged something that genuinely mattered to me. These knives carried me through…read moremy time as a professional chef and were returned in a condition that permanently altered them. I cannot replace the history attached to these blades. The refund does not change that loss. I brought several MAC knives in for sharpening and was quoted a two-week turnaround. They were ultimately held for over four weeks. During that time, I was told the delay was due to the owner's daughter being in town, which I understood and accommodated. Two days before pickup, I was told the knives had barely been started. The following morning, I received a call saying the work was complete. Later, I was told the sharpening had all been done the day before pickup, despite the knives being held for over a month. While the edges were sharp, the knives were returned with numerous dark, pepper-like surface marks across the blade faces, particularly near the heel and along the flats. These marks and pits were not present when I dropped them off. Washing with soap and water did not change them, and they appear permanent. I am a professional chef and take meticulous care of my knives, so changes in condition are immediately noticeable to me. Given the extended delay, the condition the knives were returned in, and how the concern was initially handled, I have lost confidence in the service. I had previously left a five-star review, which makes this outcome particularly disappointing. I would not feel comfortable bringing additional knives here or recommending this shop to others who rely on their knives professionally.

Sometimes they are working good as new, sometimes they are sharpened incorrectly and are a total loss. Rick is the only person in the area I trust with my scissors. We recently had our kitchen stuff sharpened too, so I got a chance to see the whole process. My stuff was sharpened to perfection, and I took the knives home and said nothing to my husband to see if he could notice the difference. He commented how the butcher knife (the first one he used and one we rarely touch) was so much sharper than the others. I told him I'd gotten them sharpened, and he was so impressed he wants them done on the regular now. Rick was super polite about me having to cancel our first appointment, and kept me updated on where he would be since I was going to an appointment he'd already had scheduled. He got my stuff done quickly. I noticed no rudeness, and of course since I was coming to him, no lateness. Call Rick and give him a try. You won't be disappointed.
