"Knives are good, because they don't make any noise, and the less noise they make, the more likely…read morewe are to use them." -- Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels (1998) I have a lot of knives. Why? I'm a chef. Mostly a home cook these days, but occasionally I still do something in the professional arena. But my knives are my tools of the trade - an extension of my hands, if you will. They need to be sharp. You cannot do a good job in the kitchen without the proper tools and you have to take care of those tools. My previous bladesmith decided to stop returning my calls - his loss. And I really needed to find someone new. I wasn't sure how I was going to do this until I was at an Elite event the other day and it turns out the musician happened to be a bladesmith by day. Lucky me! Danny and I spoke for a bit and by Monday, he was at my house taking care of my knives for me. So here is the deal - he is mobile - 100%. He comes to you, so you are not without your knives. He sets up shop in his truck - and sharpens your knives while you go about your day. What's better than that? Sure, you can take your knives to the local kitchen store and be without them for a week, but why? Danny comes to your house. The beauty is that there is not a set up fee, or a "call" fee. He charges you per inch - so how ever many knives you have and however long they may be - that's what you pay. And that is how it really should be. And at the end of the day (okay 3 hours for 15 knives and 5 pairs of scissors) - my tools were returned to me super sharp and beautifully polished. It was like I had all new knives for the price of buying a knew fancy knife. I'll take it! Dull knives are dangerous - for many reasons. So in a year - I'll call Danny again.

My fiancee and I thoroughly enjoyed the album, and he was able to fix a pretty severe chip on a Shun Blue Kiritsuke knife - as well as reshaping the profile of the blade to my liking, also was able to fix a bent tojiro pairing knife, and bring back some life to a few German blades I had pretty much stopped using. All for a very affordable price, and in a timely manner. Will definitely be a return customer! Read another review about knives being less sharp after the service - a machine polished edge is still going to take a little love to get it where you want it, Take the time to use a leather strop or even newspaper afterward to finish the edge. You'll notice an immediate and incredible difference.

Then I found Nate and Simply Sharp! Having Nate just show up one morning and sharpen my knives in my own driveway was nothing short of Amazing! He was kind and thoughtful and gave me great tips for keeping my knives sharp. The whole service took 30 minutes and he was right on time. Nate even inspired me to not have all my knives just thrown in my utensil drawer. Now they sit nicely in a proper holder so they don't chip! I will absolutely call Nate back to give my knives some love when they get dull again.

I found their company through an extensive online search in August 2020, including Yelp, as I had a unique cleaning situation. I work remotely for a company that had an 11k square foot building that required several cleanings in the final weeks as interior renovations were finishing. I also needed a company that was willing to assist unpacking boxes and helping with "house" set-up, putting items away in rooms, cabinets, drawers. In addition, we needed wash/dry/fold of a large quantity of new bed sheets, bath towels and making up of the beds. Lenora and Herschell were both so wonderful to work with - very personable, professional, punctual and flexible. Lenora is highly organized and and along with Herschell, take personal pride in the work their team performs. They took great care to be sure the facility looked perfect for a scheduled photo & video shot. Plus, the entire team managed this project so graciously while following COVID-19 procedures. Fresh and Clean did such a fantastic job and we were so happy working with the team, that they have been hired on as the facility's permanent cleaning staff. Thank you Fresh and Clean! 5 plus stars!!
