I cannot believe the difference in performance...definitely waited too long for this preventative maintenance. I plan to follow up by having a few other knives, shears, tree trimmers, etc. sharpened.

I spent nearly $300 on this knife and it breaks on the first use. Get it that the knife cut a lemon, onion and shallot. So unless that is a fancy chemical combination this place refuses to address a broken knife. A place that advertises as a premier cutlery place, heavily lacks in the customer service department. They actually imply it was user error! First time I ever had an issue with a knife from here. Last time I will have an issue as this place lost a customer.

You can't beat his enthusiasm, answering any and every question we had- even offering advice on future knife set purchases- and he's a charming conversationalist to boot. Would highly recommend his business to anyone in need of quality knife maintenance! Thank you John! better phone # for texting: 571-639-5162.

The knives are sharp now and it only took a day from drop off to pick up for the job to be done…read more Good prices as well. Service was the opposite but my brother covered that in his review and John decided to text me after the fact wanting his review to pertain only to the knife sharpening so here that is. Also for the sake of accuracy the refund he mentions in his reply took 5 hours not 1. Not a huge deal.

I probably called 5-6 times and they "never" responded. I also drove to the address and nothing. Luckily, I found another provider about 5' min away. I have a small business and when I need service, I don't have the luxury of waiting and hoping that a provider will return my calls. I would understand if I called Ince but I called multiple times because I was desperate. Left message and nothing but crickets.

I have a 5 year old lawn mower that died on me last summer, which put me in a quandary over whether…read moreto shell out another $150-200 to buy a new cheaply-made-mechanical-product-of-globalization from a mega store, or spend around the same amount in order to repair my old cheaply-made-mechanical-product-of-globalization from a mega store. Cynicism in cheek, I started calling around to the few service providers who performed small motor repairs within a 10 mile radius of my homestead and all of the providers of whom I spoke to, quoted me per hour rates around the $75-$85 range (not including the price for parts). And we wonder why the global economy is in the state that it is. Hmphft. My last straw of desperation was this serendipitous discovery the popped up on page 10 of my internet search: Deepal's Lawnmower Repair I gave Deepal a call and he quoted me a per hour service rate around $40 (not including parts). I contemplated my options for a minute and decided to give this guy a shot, so I gave him a return call and was confused for a second when a little boy answered the phone. I asked if this was the lawn mower repair shop and the boy confirmed that it was and put Deepal on the phone. Arrangements were made to drop the lawnmower off at Deepal's later that day, and that I did. I pulled up to a suburban residential home and was greeted by an amiable man of South Asian origin donning a surgical mask. Momentarily, I wondered if this was some grade B horror movie scenario, but all fears were allayed once I began conversing with Deepal. My problems were explained and he said he could have it repaired in a few hours. Incredulity came upon me when I heard the estimated time, but as rare as it is in these times - the man was true to his word. Deepal (at least, I think it was Deepal) gave me a call around 2.5 hours after I dropped off my mower and told me that it was ready for pick up. A quick performance demonstration was made and my mower had indeed, been brought back to life. Think of this little miracle as one part Frankenstein and one part Laszerus. Total price - $80. Now this is how a micro-economy is supposed to work. How did it perform under a true stress test? I mowed my overgrown lawn the following day and my little cheaply-made-mechanical-product-of-globalization didn't have one glitch at all. If you have issues with your cheaply-made-mechanical-product-of-globalization, then I most definitely recommend giving Deepal a call. Just a few notes: * don't be surprised if a boy or elderly woman answers the phone. * don't be frightened by the man with the mask. * don't be confused by the Booeymonger sticker on your lawn mower when you pick it up. * don't expect that you get a free sandwich with your lawn mower once you discover the Booeymonger sticker on your lawn mower. such expectations can lead to awkward social situations when you inquire about sandwiches that do not exist.

The second order none of the items that needed cuts were cut so I had to drive back again to have them cut. I was in a rush and figured, "they would remember to cut the parts" well I was freaking wrong about that. My truck gets 12 miles to the gallon and they are 18 miles from my house. This time I called because I was so ANGRY. They had a Dolly driver come pick up the parts and deliver them. Guess what... THE PARTS WERE NEVER CUT!!! WTF is wrong with this place? Last, they expect me to tip the Dolly driver when I wasn't the one who made a million mistakes and still can't get it right! Find another location cause this one has massive problems!!!

They continued to tell me the part was i guess on backorder. I was able to get the part delivered next day non-OEM. They only will use OEM parts. I told them i needed my lawnmower back and I'd do the work myself. They refused to refund my $60.00 deposit. So they ripped me off on top of everything. I guess it's true the saying goes "If you want something done right!". Long story short, I'm not going to be returning in the future.
