Brought in a set of heirloom kitchen knives that hadn't been sharpened in years. They came back feeling like new — honestly better. DJ knows his craft.

I've been bringing my hunting knives here for seasons. Consistent, fast, and they always ask the right questions about how I use each blade. That attention matters.
