Sharpening4u

Wow! Incredible service. I went in with a small pocketknife that I use daily, let’s just say it could barely cut a piece of paper. I brought it in and showed him my knife and within five minutes I was out the door! Amazing service and incredible pricing, I will gladly recommend this place to anyone who needs any sort of cutting instrument sharpen to the point of being brand new.

Thank you Unilocalers for recommending this wonderful local shop!
We brought in two cleavers, a boning knife, and a chef’s knife. They belong to my elderly mother in law. Dropped off around 1 pm on a Friday, they were promised for pickup after 3:30 pm. We returned to pick them up at 5:30 pm.
The owner not only had them done, she explained WHY she applied the edges the way she did. She actually heard my comment about who owned and used the knives. Her decisions made the knives easier and SAFER for my mother in law to use. She brought three of the knives back to life for their intended uses. The chef’s knife had lost too much edge to be used as anything else but a knife for slicing.
If we had any complaints about the work, we could bring any of the knives back to the shop for rework.
We were out the door for $ 18. While credit cards are accepted, please consider paying in cash. This reduces the shop’s cost of doing business, helps out the owner, and keeps prices reasonable. Thank you Sharpening4U!

Harmonie is AMAZING. For many years my knives had been poorly sharpened by another business that no longer exists. She quickly diagnosed the issues and went to work on 8 knives. And they were ready in under 2 hours. They are sharper than they were when I originally purchased them many years ago! Thank you, Harmonie. I’ll be back!

Nice job on sharpening my kitchen knives! Really great value for job well done.

A no frills joint with fast turnaround and a very helpful owner. Four knives sharpened for just sixteen dollars. Great value

I brought in a few knives and a mower blade that were due for sharpening. The person who took them in told me the mower blade was beyond revival and I should replace it. She even told me a likely place to find a new blade. The knives came back quickly and very sharp. I was very pleased with the process and will return.

Fantastic job. Fast. Honest. Reasonable. I highly recommended going here. She got my machetes razor sharp time and time again.

My knives are sharp!

We truly love this place. Candid, speedy fast, helpful, effective and super affordable. Not just knives, also does a great job with scissors and gardening shears.

A total gem of a service businesses. Even our crappy knives have a whole new lease on life after their quick visit to Sharpening4U. Harmonie was a total delight and answered all our questions about knife care in thorough detail. Girl knows her stuff! And you can’t beat the price — $ 5 for sharpening larger blades (even a serrated bread knife) and $ 3 for the little ones. And our knives slice through everything like a breeze now — it’s amazing! I also liked her very complete warnings about blade safety.
Now, we know these cheap Hamilton-​Beach knives won’t hold their sharpness forever, so we asked Harmonie for advice on better-​quality culinary knives in which to invest in the future. She took all the time in the world to discuss our options — and since they don’t have a retail operation, her advice was totally objective. Super advice — complete and practical. You can bet that when we do upgrade our knife collection, we’ll be returning to Harmonie at Sharpening4U to keep them in razor-​sharp condition. So, SO glad to have found this place. Great job!

Well, I found another winner here thanks to Unilocal!I called after 5 pm on a Friday, and was still able to make an appointment for the following day. Jesse came and picked up five of my knives from my food truck (Rip City Sandwiches), sharpened them to perfection, and returned them to me within an hour. He even allowed me to trade sandwiches for his services!!! Sharpening4U is perfect for food trucks and I will recommend them to all the other truck owners in our pod!
Thanks again guys!

Excellent service, awesomely sharp work. Turn around time was 30 minutes. $ 4 for gardening shears. Can’t believe it. Awesome.

Based on the enthusiastic reviews, I took in 7 of my very best kitchen knives, all of them top brands. Cut to the chase: they did a fine job and it only cost $ 20. The place is pretty down home. They don’t give you a receipt when you leave behind your $ 200 worth of slicing treasure. You just come back later, or the next day, and they dig around in the stacks and eventually pull out the plastic container which contains your knives. Super reasonable prices and excellent quality sharpening are yours for a song. They also do lawn mowers. The place was filled with them. Shop local and go for it with these guys.

I cannot give Sharpening4U enough praise! The customer service is amazing, the turnaround is incredible and I got a ton of helpful information about my next set of future knives. They have a custom for life.

Very quick turnaround, excellent job. I tried cutting open a plum and the knife was so sharp that it cut through the pit while applying almost no pressure.

Living in dull knife denial was kind of ridiculous.
–This was realized after finally dragging my feet up to Sharpening 4u.
I had three knives sharpened in 10 minutes.
It only cost $ 10 to bring in my mediocre knife set, and they came out sharper than they were brand new!
I appreciate their straightforward attitude & excellent customer service.
Never again will I have to tolerate a dull knife; Sharpening 4u made the whole process easy and affordable.
Stop living in dull knife denial and bring in your cutlery!

Great customer service, quick turnover time, very reasonable prices, and the most adorable little dog I have ever seen — it knows how to ring the bell to ask to go out!
Go get your knives sharpened today, you’ll wish you had come here sooner.

I brought my sewing shears and a kitchen knife to be sharpened here yesterday, and I’m really happy with them both. A couple of little nicks on the blades of the shears were driving me nuts, but now they’re nice and sharp and much easier to use because the guy sharpening them (didn’t catch his name), also loosened them up a bit. And the price ($ 3 for the scissors and $ 5 for the knife), was totally reasonable.
I’ll definitely be coming back, and bringing a couple more knives to be sharpened.
(If you go, say hi to the tiny black dog who sleeps under a table. She was so quiet and little that I didn’t even realize she was there until I was leaving. So cute!)

I took my well-​loved (read: abused) 8″ chef’s knife in to this lovely woman today. In five minutes (and for $ 5) she had it sharper than it was brand new. She also very kindly took the time to show me how to properly use a sharpening steel. I’m better informed and better armed thanks to my visit to her charming shop. Goddamn it feels good to get excellent customer service!
Her sharpening rates are based on the size of the knife and are absolutely reasonable. I believe it was $ 4 for 7″ and below, $ 5 for 8″ and $ 6 for 9″ and above, but don’t quote me on that. She told me she adds on an extra dollar for bread knives.
There was a sign up that noted they prefer cash, but will accept cards for transactions of $ 10 or more. Luckily, there is a Plaid Pantry a block away, so I was able to scamper up and grab cash from the ATM. By the time I was back, my knife was ready to go. What turnaround!
Visit this shop. It is a freaking gem and does great work.

Knives as sharp as the devil himself.
Turn around was 30 minutes. $ 32 for the bargain (set of 8 kitchen knives). Friendly service and good advice on using my knife steel to maintain edges better. They’ll accept credit cards and checks, but pay with cash if you can and help out a small business.
Go and your knives will thank you for it.
