What a privilege to sharpen some really cool knives yesterday--a collection of unique tools spanning over 100 years. From a WWII bayonet to antler-handled carving-ware, I was feelin' the history.

Apparently, spring is here... at least temporarily. Time to make sure those garden tools are sharp!

A friend is selling a "Buzz Saw"... a nicely refurbished saw--popular in the early part of the last century-- used to cut firewood into useable lengths. Contact me if you're interested. He wants $400 for it (an antique bargain!).

What We Do

We’ve been sharpening tools in Black Mountain for 16-years, and we absolutely love helping people recycle their worn out, rusty and dull tools. We can sharpen almost anything--kitchen knives, circular saw blades, chain saw blades, garden tools, lawn mower blades, drill bits, planer blades... you name it.

We’ll return your tool to it’s original sharpness--or even better--at a very reasonable rate (see our price list on our Facebook feed) and save you the hassle and cost of replacing your tool. And we can usually get your tool back to you in one-day, or if you call ahead, we'll sharpen while-you-wait! You can drop your tools off and pick them up 24/7 at our convenient Drop Box/Kiosk on McCoy Cove Road. Come by and let us help you get back to work!
