Sword Sharpening

Most of the sharpening I do is knives, but not all! I sharpen garden tools and scissors pretty much everyday; sharpen cleavers almost every day — but some more unusual pieces are taken to me to sharpen from time to time.


Sword Sharpening
The picture above is a sword I sharpened for a collector when I was at Gene's Fine Foods in Pleasanton. People have brought me unusual items like swords, more common items like machetes — and much more ordinary work to sharpen such as meat grinder dies, food processor blades, and garden tools such as hoes, shovels and the like.

Sharpened Axe
Axes are often brought in. Most customers bring in their camping axe, but axes that are beat up by pruning roots are brought in often.
