I've visited this shop at least 2 times now. The first time was to ask whether they sharpen Cutco…read moreknives there. The answer was sometimes they do depending on the condition of the knife. A few weeks later I came back with my knife. They decided to send it to the factory in NYC. I didn't have to pay for the shipping if I pick it up from the store again when it is ready. I have been getting uodates via email about the progress. When it arrived at the Cutco site it was only a few days after when I received email update stating it's being sent back. I'm thrilled that this shop has the sheaths. They weren't available when I got my knives back in 2010. Love that sheaths prizes are affordable. I've been fully satisfied with my Cutco knives: 7" santoku, cheese, serated slicer and cleaver. Had them for more than 16 years. The staff here have been helpful and friendly.

I was pleased to find Frank's service was recommended and located not far from where I live. That way I wouldn't have to wait on or have the expense of mailing. His informative website further confirmed my interest as pricing was straightforward and affordable. In addition, his background and level of training (with connections to Japan) looked quite substantial. He seems to approach knife sharpening as something he finds intrinsically compelling as an art, beyond just a business. When I called regarding his services, he was very friendly and flexible schedule-wise as far as when I could drop off my four knives. It took only a day to get them done and the price was very affordable. I'm assuming it was his wife who met me at their door both times. She was agreeable to work with. In all, I highly recommend this no-nonsense service. As expected, my blades were dramatically and affordably improved and I won't need to invest in a high-end forged blade any time soon.

It was a gift and means a lot to me, so I was nervous about trusting it to someone else. They did a fantastic job. I later brought in a couple of additional knives. Rather than automatically sharpening my chef's knife, the technician explained that it was still sharp enough and that removing more metal was unnecessary. He identified a burr that was making it feel duller than it actually was, removed it at no charge, and sharpened my other knife. That honesty and care made me feel very comfortable. This is now my go-to place for knife sharpening.

They always helped a little, but it was never great, and certainly not as good as when my knives were new. I figured I needed an expert but didn't know where to go. Yelp was very helpful finding Bernie's, which was close to home and super convenient. When you get there, you'll wonder for a minute if they even do small jobs like this because it's a shop that looks like it mainly deals with industrial equipment or something. But rest assured your blades are welcome, just go to the little office at the right of the shop. All in all, an amazing experience. For only $9, my two high end chef's knives are as sharp, if not sharper, than the day I got them. I dropped them off at lunch and they were even ready before the 4pm close. I very highly recommend Bernie's to anyone who needs any blades sharpened!
