Gary did a fantastic job on my two Sakai Takayuki knives that hadn’t been sharpened in the best part of 6/7 years. They look almost brand new and cut really well again. Thanks Gary!

Great guy providing a great service at reasonable prices. Gary loves his craft and you should go and get your knifes sharpened by him and you won’t look back. Highly recommended!
Boh Tjarks
Incredible. I came to Gary with my broken and blunt Japanese knife, and he restored it to even sharper than when I first bought it. He’s extremely skilled and knowledgeable, even taking the time to explain the process as he went. It was super efficient and affordable, I plan to come back very soon. Thanks

Gary did a fantastic job … sharpening my knives. He is very friendly and takes his job very seriously. End result were knives that my family are happy to do all the chopping with and all at a reasonable price. Will use him again for sure. He even delivered them back to my home in Barnes as he was going to be in the area. Highly recommend him.

Fantastic service by the Blade Sharpener. I brought my kitchen knives and two hours later got them back sharpened perfectly and with great care. My knives have never been so sharp before. I can’t recommend them highly enough.

Some of The Equipment We Use

Knife Sharpening With A Japanese Water Stone in South West London

We use the Tormek T-8 Sharpening System to sharpen, polish and hone all knives and blades that have a non-standard edge, by hand. This system uses a Japanese water stone and is perfect for Japanese knives, especially if your knife has a non-standard angle.

The wet grinding method involved with this system promises a clean, polished edge without the risk of overheating, as the water helps keep the knife edge cool throughout the sharpening process. This system also removes less metal and allows the knife to keep its temper, significantly extending the life of your blades.

Once we have finished the sharpening process, we then polish and hone the knife over three different stages to ensure the best possible finish.

Commercial Knife Sharpening in South West London

The Catra i100 is one of the world’s best commercial knife sharpeners, producing some the sharpest knives as proved by extensive tests. The system allows us to sharpen commercial knives fast with consistent edge angles on every knife.

Extensive sharpness testing on the ISO 8442.5 tester reveals that levels of sharpness produced on the CATRA model i100 are some of the highest produced by any system. The edge life for any given knife blade steel is also amongst the best achieved for re-sharpenable commercial use knives.
