I brought in a worn-down kitchen knive and shears to be sharpened and the experience was great from start to finish.
Scheduling was a breeze, and communication was clear and quick throughout the entire process. The turn around time was far quicker than i expected. Vinny had my knives back to me within an hour!
The quality of the work is outstanding. The edges are razor sharp and feel much better than upon first purchase, let alone in their worn down state. On top of that, the return packaging was incredibly thoughtful with a great presentation and secure keeping the freshly sharpened blades completely safe during transport.
As a fun extra, I really appreciated their promotional materials! The branded stickers, magnet, and buisness card included with the returned package were a really professional. It’s clear Vinny takes serious pride in his craft and business. I’ll definitely be sending all my blades here from now on, highly recommended!

Excellent service! Our knives came back super sharp, and he did a fantastic job! They were also packaged extremely well for their return. Great attention to detail and quality work! I would highly recommend The Knife Guy to anyone needing their knives sharpened. We will definitely be using his services again!

Vinny did a great job sharpening all my knives. I took all 16 of them over in the morning and they were ready that afternoon. The now glide thru everything I cut without force, effort or dragging. I highly recommend Vinny!

Vinny was a pleasure to work with. Super flexible, quick and personable. His work is unbelievable. Will be back!

Vinny is professional and attentive. Not only is he knowledgeable but he is also willing to work out solutions that fit your needs specifically. From his website, to the actual sharpening, he made this easy on me. Without question he has a life long customer.

I hadn’t sharpened my knives for years. The knives were sharpened fast and they work perfectly.

Great service. I’ll use it from now on.

Top quality work at reasonable price. Super quick too.

Vinnie the Knife Guy is the best. I sharpen them regularly every year and he is fantastic and professional. Heartily recommended.

Vinny is a great guy and is a professional in his craft. Super fast response time and turnaround. He sharpened my MKC hunting knife to what I think is way better than the factory edge it came with. I’ll be bringing all my other knives to him and will be recommending him to my friends and family. Thanks Vinny!

Highly recommend! This is the best knife sharpening we’ve ever had. Some of my knives are sharper than when they were new. Such a difference in the kitchen! I’ll definitely be bringing them back.

Great experience! Vinny is extremely professional, knowledgeable, and has a very tidy setup. Thank you!

Professional and personable. And most importantly great result with my knife.

Vinny did a fantastic job on my knives. He reshaped the broken off tips to have a point and sharpened them to perfection. I had to keep telling myself to slow down so I wouldn’t cut my fingers off. Very professional and did an awesome job. They are like band new again.

Happy knives mean a happy kitchen! I really did a number on my old kitchen scissors - trying to sharpen them on a handheld sharpener incorrectly (the instructions were not clear). Vinny sharpened them to perfection! Vinny can work with schedules for drop off and pickup, is very professional, and the cost is very reasonable for the sharpness and care you get. He even offered to treat the wooden handles with oil free. Not to be missed if you’re a serious home cook.

The knife guy is amazing! I dropped off six knives for him to sharpen and he had them done rather quickly for me. His quality of work, attention to detail and added little touches such as oiling the wood handle, providing sleeves for the knives and even a bandaid for extra precaution. My knives came back professionally sharp. I'll certainly be using him again. Can't recommend enough.

Five stars isn't enough for Vinny.

I booked online and he called me 10 minutes later. I dropped off my knives the next day. Two hours later, he was done. He sharpened 6 Japanese knives, a cleaver and 2 pairs of scissors.

I run events for a living. I know good service when I see it. Vinny is fast, convenient and professional, and the results beat my expectations. My knives haven't cut like this in years.

He also told me he'll check in over the next few days to make sure I'm happy. Hardly anyone does that anymore.

And his branding is fantastic. You can tell he takes pride in what he does.

If you're in Reno, drop your knives off with Vinny. If you're anywhere else in the US, mail them in. Either way, you'll be glad you did. I'll be back!

I have been struggling for a year trying to sharpen my knives every time I need to use them. I looked online and thought well I’m gonna buy new ones well shucks the new ones that are any good or very very very expensive so I googled who sharpened knives in the Reno area and I think three or four names came up and the knife guy who I ended up using had excellent excellent reviews and I can understand why he did an excellent job. He was very knowledgeable and a real nice guy and I recommend him highly you will not be disappointed

Great, fast service. My knives look great!

The Knife Guy recently sharpened several knives and a couple pairs of kitchen shears for me. Communication was very easy, and he was very flexible about timing for drop-off/pick-up. All the items were returned super sharp. I’m very pleased with his service and would highly recommend.
