Mobile Sharpening Service

Welcome to The Sharpsmith

Growing up on a cattle farm, I started sharpening knives in my early teens, more than 55 years ago. Sharp knives is a passion and a joy. I sharpen knives for my customers as I sharpen my own knives.

Working with sharp working tools is the best and most productive way to produce a final product.

Working with a sharp instrument (Knife, Scissors, Wood Chisels, etc) has the following benefits:

• Faster Production
• Reduces waste and increases yield or recovery.
• Because less pressure is needed to cut, this reduces the risk slipping during the cutting process, lowers the risk of injury.
• Improved health because using sharp knives or scissors reduces the onset of carpal tunnel health issues.
• Better finished products.
• Lower fatigue of the user because the cutting process is easier and faster.
• Improved profitability due to increased profitability and lower fatigue in staff.
• Saving the time, it would take the staff member to sharpen their own knives (in the case of butchers and chefs).
• Etc.
