      Simon did a great job on two of my knifes that I use for work. I dropped them off in the morning and he was able to complete the sharpening by the afternoon. The knifes are a lot sharper than before and will make my job a lot easier now. Would highly recommend his services.

      Simon is truly a master knifesharpener. His process uses traditional Japanese whetstones with nano-fine grit. He even showed me samurai blade that was surgical-level sharp! You can hear the passion he has for his craft when he describes the process. I am certain my knives are sharper than when they were new!

      I found Simon through a local community group and he did not disappoint!! My Shun knife had a broken tip and a few chips on the blade. I dropped it off and it was fixed within a few hours. His prices are fair and the craftsmanship is excellent! I highly recommend if you're looking for someone to sharpen or fix a knife. Thanks Simon!

      There are a times in your life when you realize that you're in the presence of someone who's a master at what he does. More times then not, they do the thing and do it with passion. Simon is one such fellow. I found him thru Yelp, he was the first of a few to answer my question, "do you sharpen S-Blades for food processors. I had two that needed sharpening really bad. One was a dull as listening to the nightly news with my parents as a kid. And since he did S-blades why not bring him a few of my Japanese knives for S&G's. The dull S-blade is so sharp it's like watching George Carlin or Dave Chappell tearing a heckler apart just for fun. He learned his craft in Japan, and what he's done to my blades, I can see sushi chef's bringing their prized knives to him to work on. Prices are fair. Service is great which is in short supply these days. Highly recommended.

      Simon did a great job on my nakiri, santoku, and German chef knife (Wustof chef knife - with bolster). They came back to me within the hour and were extremely sharp. Would definitely recommend Simon for sharpening. His prices are reasonable and he's very responsive!

      Simon did a great job sharpening a couple chef knives and pocket knives that had been poorly maintained. Was also cool to see and learn about the process. He loves what he does and it shows.
