Very easy process, friendly guy, and unbelievably sharp knives. The logo bandage is a very clever touch.

Vinnie was excellent at communicating and my knives came back very sharp-I immediately cut myself!
I had an amazing experience at the farmers market and had came across the knifeguy831 here in the area and they had a beautiful collection of kitchen knives too survival knives and as well as E.D.C blades .
I purchased a handcrafted fixed blade with perfect weight ratio to the blade and with amazing steel . Upon purchasing he even sharpened my other blade I had as well as the one purchased . If your wanting to level up your kitchen with fine knives to add to your Cuttery hit up the knife guy ‼️
Fantastic knife sharpening service! I had knives and scissors worked on and they are razor sharp. 100% recommend
On time done quickly the wife is extremely happy! Will use Vinny again for sure.
Started out bringing Vinny a lawn mower blade that needed sharpening, and that quickly turned into discovering the quality of his knife work. Vinny does outstanding work with very fast turnaround times, fair pricing, and incredible attention to detail. He took the time to explain proper knife maintenance and care, which I really appreciated.

You can tell he takes pride in what he does. He’s a firefighter by day and runs this sharpening business on the side with a meticulous approach and a really professional shop setup. The presentation when you get your knives back is top notch — they look and feel fantastic. Highly recommend Vinny to anyone looking for quality sharpening work done right.

The Knife Guy did a great job sharpening my reel mower blades. From what I could find, he might be the only person in Reno who works on reel mower blades, and he did excellent work. Highly recommend!
Knives came back extremely sharp. Quick turnaround and very fair pricing.
Vinnie just wow! So nice and sincere truly cares! Will only use him, he did 9 knifes in 1.5 hours very impressive he gets 110%
Excellent customer service and product from a very local business. Vinny was awesome to work with.
Had a wonderful experience! I took 13 knives that were pretty dull and used for quite some years, after taking them to Vinny they were even better and sharper than new! I will definitely be taking them to Vinny again.
First class sharpening service Vinny does an exquisite job. He is Sharp, in case you forget to treat them like new Knives, he includes a Band-Aid.
Vinny was great to work with. Super responsive, turnaround time on sharpening our knives was same day and the knives came out great. Would highly recommend!
Vinny received three of my older knives and fixed them up good. They are sharp and look and work great. I also found out that he sharpens sewing scissors. What a find. Going to be dropping off my sewing scissors next.
Speedy service and excellent craftsmanship!
Brought my Microtech Exocet to Vinny, Normally, I would sharpen it myself, but I did not want to mess up the blue coating on the blade. Vinny is very knowledgeable, has a Knife Sharpening workshop any man would be jealous of, and is just an all-around nice guy. He sharpened my knife quickly and efficiently while I waited. When I got back to my car, I noticed a slight imperfection at the tip of the knife. I brought it back to Vinny right then, and after looking at it under a high-powered magnifying glass, He agreed there was a small imperfection. He quickly redid the knife and it came out perfect. I really can’t recommend him enough! Don’t hesitate to trust him with all your sharpening! I’m getting pretty proficient, but I might go back to Vinny just because he deserves the business!
Vinny, his wife and baby are very lovely people. They were very friendly and welcoming. I dropped off my whole knife set in horrible condition. I received my knives less than 2 hours from when I dropped them off. Not only are they like brand new, they are beautiful again. Vinny rereconditioned the handles as well as sharpened them. The knives, are totally brand new again. Not only were they done in 2 hours and insanely sharp, Vinny showed me what I should and shouldn't do with them. I am very grateful and now a customer for life. Thanks Vinny!
Vinnie sharpened kitchen knives, kitchen scissors and many yard tools. I do sharpen my own but I could never get the sharp edge he gets. He took them apart, cleaned off the rust and put items back together using a food safe lubricant. My tools are older and made better than many of the cheaper plastic tools so I want to preserve and care for these items. Using a professional to help me do this is important to the life of my kitchen and yard tools. The downside? I really have to be careful now that they are so sharp, I had to use the bandaid he included once the work was done.
