testimonials
My wife called Mike on snowy day in February to have our kitchen knife set sharpened. We showed up 10 minutes later after calling and was able to get in right then. Mike finished sharpening all the knives (11) in an hour and a half! The knives came out great! Having a knife sharpener at this caliber in the area has been needed for years. Glad to have found The Sharp Edge. We will definitely be coming back.

We had been looking for another Knife Sharpener since ours closed 4 years ago. We got tired of complaining to each other how our imported German Cutlery now had trouble slicing a tomato. Found The Sharp Edge online, looked at the positive Yelp reviews and gave Mike a call. He was friendly, knowledgeable, priced fairly, and brought all seven (7) back to life while we waited. This included repairing Bread Knife blade damage done by a previous shop. I would recommend Mike | The Sharp Edge to anyone who cooks, invests in good knives, and wants to keep their tools sharp.

The Sharp Edge is awesome - i got my hatchet sharpened here before i left for a camping trip. The price was very reasonable and communication with the owner was easy and enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back.
