About Us

Hello and Welcome. My name is James Slaughter and I'm excited to be your local sharpening service. For Twenty Five years I had  been a full time working Chef, frustrated  with the lack of sharpening service options and quality of work. It became imperative  that I learn to sharpen my own knives in order to perform in my job. As I learned the craft of sharpening, friends, coworkers and family began requesting my skills and it is for this reason that I have started my own mobile sharpening service that comes right to your place of business or home.

 

When I considered the kind of service I was going to provide my customers I decided two things:

​

-One: I wanted to provide a Hands On Quality Service with fair prices that comes to you and does the work on site with fast turn around and returned same day. 

​

-Two: I wanted to give every customer a quality service with the best equipment Available to ensure minimal heat and removal of metal.

​

-Knife Sharpening.  I use  the Tormek system 

The stone wheel is low speed and  water cooled , I then do a second stage  on higher grit stone wheel  then over to the Japanese  water wheel, The final touch is a few passes on  a felt wheel with 30,000 grit, To remove any  wire edge and to further polish. The final result  is a mirror polished razor sharp edge!   

 

-Scissor Sharpening I use the Wolff Ookami Gold  System  scissors will be sharpened, adjusted, sanitized, oiled and  returned ready for use.

 

-Clipper Blades.   I use the Treyco Model 3000

blades are sharpened, cleaned, sanitized, oiled and resembled and  then tested  and  returned ready for use.

​

-Yard Tools. I use a combination of hand stones and sand belts,  tools are cleaned minor rust removal sharpened and oiled. 

​

Thank you for your business and trust. Can't wait to see you at our first appointment!
