    I'd been looking for someone to sharpen my knives for some time and I have some handmade Japanese knives as well as some more commercial Japanese knives. I had looked locally but wasn't sure what to expect since there aren't many options locally. Well as far as options are concerned it's not a big deal if you have a craftsman like Justin. With the exception of one knife, all of the knives that he sharpened for me are are SHARPER than when NEW!! The one that isn't is a handmade knife that could split hairs when new, that knife is as sharp as when it was new!!! If you have good knives, Justin can probably make them better than new and if you have great knives, he'll make them as good as new!!!

    See all

    We've lived in Texas for several years and this was one of the most fun things we have ever done!…read moreIt was my oldest bday and she loves knives. We walked in and they had a cancellation. Jay was absolutely amazing and so patient. Her knife took about 2 hrs to make and we had such a great time it felt like 20 minutes. He had great stories and kept us engaged. He communicated clearly with rules, expectations, and what each step was that she had to work on next. He had us laughing so much. Vic was another brother that was great. He kept my youngest, 9 yr old, engaged and had her complete attention. He was patient and helped her stand correctly and how to hold the hammer. And he had to repeat himself many times but never lost patience with her. He showed us how to make different nail swords and let her help too. This is a family business and honestly it is a must for any visitors, tourist, or even Texans that never see what's around them (like us!). I totally recommend bringing your family or friends. We won't regret it and you'll go home with a unique gift that you made yourself.

    My dad and I thought this would be a fun to do together so we reached out to book and they never…read moregot back to us. I called in the morning and asked if they had any openings at 4 and the guy on the phone was kinda rude and said technically yes but I was gonna close early but I guess I can fit you in. I was super thankful and excited but when we showed up I was shocked by the unprofessional, vulgar and unsafe behavior of the worker. He sat off to the side making his own bracelet and gave us almost no guidance and didn't help or check on us. He told us to do whatever the F we wanted and he didn't care. Halfway through he informed us he was an "idiot" because he didn't have us sign the safety waiver! Honestly we had fun but it was extremely uncomfortable and we just kinda had to figure out what to do and listen to him tell uncomfortable stories and cuss up a storm. We also never got his name but he was a younger man in his 20s.
