    Danny was able to sharpen all of the above!

    When my 10 year old pruning shears failed to cut tulip stems in one try, I searched for what to do (I didn't even know someone could sharpen shears) on yelp. And I am glad I did! Danny was responsive and I was able to make an appointment right away. Upon emailing back and forth, I learned that he would be able to sharpen more than knives and shears. I gathered all the blades in my apartment, packed them up and left them with the doorman expecting he would be unable to sharpen several of them. Lo and behold, he sharpened everything expect for the finest tooth blade for Benriner Mandolin!! (not shown in the photo) I was floored! He was completely reasonable with the price too given that I was only a click away from ordering new pair of pruning shears and other old tools. My blades were given new lives and I am so happy to be using my trusty tools everyday. Thank you so much Danny!!

    We arranged for Danny to come to our co-op for a couple of days as the demand was high. I suspect he will have to come back soon as everyone else finds out what a nice job he did. He parked outside, we dropped off our knives and picked them up later. He is super friendly and knows what he is doing. My knives are like new. Very reasonably priced as well!

    It was really easy working with them. Very responsive and courteous. I gave them a huge bag of items, many in bad shape, some high-end some low and it all came back sharp and well cared for. I was especially impressed that they were even able to shapen my vintage vegetable peeler and cheese planer.

    Just some of the pieces he sharpened.

    It took three weeks to get an actual appointment which he never bothered to show up for. Ignored my texts. Why waste my time?

    Danny sharpened a few knives and garden shears for me - did a good job. Knives were very sharp, garden shears were better than new.

    Danny drove right up to my building, picked up the knives from me and when finished sharpening, messaged me.

They operate out of their truck and if you follow them on Instagram or their website, they work in different locations around New York City. Bradley assisted me, explaining what needed to be done and we were very impressed by how sharp our " new " knives worked after we returned them to our kitchen. Their website is: greenpointknives.com.
