Friendly staff, very knowledgeable. Service was fast and affordable. I got my pocket knife sharpened, the process took less than 10 minutes. You can browse their shop while you get your knife sharpened. They offer several high-end brands from pocket knives to kitchen knives. Overall I would highly recommend Serenity Knives.

Awesome place to get your knife sharpened. Never got my knife sharpened by a professional before but this really made a great first impression on me. Daniel and Nick we’re very knowledgeable about a lotta brands and materials, I had a blast talking to them. Def this tiny hidden gem is actually a huge diamond in disguised. Check them out if you never been and is thinking bout sharpening your knives!

Unique gem of a service provider... These guys are friendly, helpful, skilled and extremely knowledgeable. I came in to get a couple knives sharpened and didnt want to leave. Fun showroom with unique knives, including ones from local producers.

I read the reviews before heading over to Serenity Knives and they were spot on. Awesome place. It’s a small shop behind a house, and just a very cool place to check out. I was there to buy a small pocket knife and Daniel took the time to walk me through all of the pros and cons of various steels and product lines. Very informative and helpful.

I saw online that they were a spyder co dealer and went to go find a solid pocket knife. Daniel was a great help and was very knowledgeable on everything knife related. He also showed me a few amazing custom knives that they make.

I don’t write reviews but Daniel and the crew at Serenity knives inspired me when stopping in to get a knife for my father in law. Ended up getting one for my mother in law and myself. They walked me through and ended up helping select knives that were a huge hit. Extremely knowledgeably, helpful and just easy to talk to. And their custom knives and showpieces on display are like looking at a wall in an art museum.

This place is LEGIT. Super friendly and knowledgeable guys. I brought in my pocket knife to get sharpened and we geeked out about the various metals we prefer for our knives. I checked out their custom made knives, which are beautiful and razor sharp, while they sharpened mine. Had such a good experience I even brought my friend by later that day so he can sharpen his knives. Absolutely looking forward to my next sharpening and will bring a few more knives with me too. Will likely commission a knife or two here for Holiday gifts as well.

What a great shop. Not only was my axe perfectly sharpened in 10 minutes, but what a great staff! Cool, fun, welcoming atmosphere. I highly recommend Serenity!

I had seen this business on a Google search and as my brother was in town we decided to visit. Time well spent!!!! Picked out a knife in a small but well stocked showroom. I like to endorse small businesses and Serenity has great customer service. Will definitely shop here again.

Very knowledgeable crew with excellent service and fair prices. My knives came back razor sharp, and I also picked up a new Miyabi chef’s knife from their shop. If you’re looking for a new knife or are interested in sharpening services check serenity out!

I found this place about a year and a half ago. I love it! Russell Montgomery & his employees are first class. Very knowledgeable, kind & professional. He made a beautiful Gaucho knife for my mother. Hes in the process of making a gaucho knife for me and a paring knife for my mother. I just bought a beautiful chef knife. The handle is Micarta & vintage Micarta as well. Its lite weight great for my arthritis in my wrist. My mother and I just finished a knife sharpening instruction class with him. One on one, lots of fun! We learned a lot. I recommend Serenity knives to everybody! Go in and look at the showroom. Beautiful knives! You can Commission him to make a knife you would like. Its pretty amazing!

My grandfather passed away this past January, while staying at his house in New Hampshire to both attend the funeral and spend time with loved ones I came across an old hunting knife that belonged to him as well as my dad and uncle (though they would still argue over who the knife actually belonged to...). When i found it the blade needed a little TLC as well as the handle which was coming apart. I did what i could for the blade but had no clue how to repair the handle with out damaging the knife. So i took it to a professional over at Serenity Knives and couldn’t believe it was the same knife i dropped off a few weeks ago. I think my grandfather would be very happy with how it turned out. Worth every penny to have this knife stay in my family for future generations to come.

These folks are real craftsmen. I took my Helle in with a few nicks and Daniel worked the edge exactly as the manufacturer recommends, a Scandi bevel.I asked a ton of questions and Daniel was patient and addressed all of my concerns. He even explained each step of the process as he was working the blade.I shopped around for various sharpeners and after this experience, I will never let anyone but Serenity touch my knives.They have a showroom of knives they make in house as well as a few other brands.Im so happy a place like this exists in Houston.

Amazing staff, beautiful knives. Local and handcrafted!

The perfect knife shop! Don’t judge this book by it’s cover bc it’s so cool inside. We Went not knowing what to expect and Daniel and the team were so friendly, informative and enthusiastic. Amazing selection of custom and mainstream knives. It’s just a great spot!

Was looking for this Spyderco Pacific Salt 2 everywhere online was out of stock. Saw on their New Year post that they had one. Quickly messaged them on instagram got a fast response that they had 1 in stock!🙌🏾 Drove on up on New Year’s day was greeted by Nick and shown their full inventory and amazing shop. Talked a bit about knives and got what I was looking for! Excellent team, I highly recommend any knife collector / aficionado to stop by. They are open till 10am-6pm Tuesday- Saturday. Thanks again Serenity Knives, hope to do more business with yall🤝🏾

Wanted to get our kitchen knives sharpened as a surprise for my husband, so I needed same day service. Central Market couldn’t verify if they could be done same day, so I went to Google and found Serenity. Brought them in at 10:30 and I got a call that the knives were done before I even made it home! Great customer service and great results.

Fast service at a great price! Everyone is friendly and their sharpening skills are top notch. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Serenity Knives. Brought a Kershaw to them for sharpening and they did a great job with true attention to detail. The guys working here are friendly and professional too. Thanks very much.

Had a great experience. Walked in with a folding knife that they were unfamiliar with that had had a sticky mechanism. While I waited, they took it apart, figured out the issue, cleaned it up, sharpened it, and it’s working like the day it was gifted to me. I’m very grateful to have it back in order and thrilled to have found Serenity Knives right in our neighborhood. We will certainly be back to have our kitchen knives sharpened.

This is an amazing shop in Houston. Products are great, but service and attitude is even better. If he does not have, he will make it for you! 👍👍👍👍👍

I took a couple of Shun kitchen knives in for sharpening after about 4 years of normal use. They inspected the knives thoroughly and told me what they would do to them. In 20 minutes they called to say they were done. When I picked them up they showed me the blades and explained again what they had done. The results are beyond satisfactory. The edges are better than when they came from the factory in Japan. I will be back for sure.

Love these guys so much! I will forever do business with them and you should do the same! Its ALL inclusive and they give their absolute professional best with a personal touch of custom excellence every time!

Great service, AMAZING craftsmanship...the premiere spot for all your knife needs! A chef’s dream shop! Will definitely be returning!

Brought in a saber and a knife that needed work done, both turned out very nicely. Im very happy how they turned out will return in the future.

What a Great shop and experience. The guys at Serenity Knives have knowledge and expertise on anything with a blade, from sharpening your favorite knife, scissors, or anything that cuts. Fast, fair priced Service. They also Carry the Best of the Best knives for sale . Highly recommend.

Im a firm believer in spending money wisely. I took my pocket knife in because I dulled the edge of the blade. I had to drive 30 miles to get there which took me about 1 hour & a half because of traffic, and Daniel had me out the door in less than 10 ten minutes. Was it worth it?... Worth every penny! These guys have good reviews and there is a reason for it. Will I make the drive back for any future repairs?... Heck yeah! Best place in town.

As a competitive axe thrower i put my axes through a lot of punishment. I took them to get sharpened at Serenity and they put a masterful edge on them! It lasted a full 8 week league before needing to be re-sharpened! I will definitely be coming back!

Just found these guys recently and paid a visit today. Can’t say enough good about them! Daniel greeted me kindly and Nick hung out, talked knives and let me play with all their blades until I bought one! There was another dude who sharpened my pocket knife on the spot, and I didn’t catch his name, but he was super friendly, too. Just a good, solid, friendly group of people. Had a few things in stock that I didn’t expect to see, too! 10/10. Seriously, this place is probably gonna become a habit for me. If you’re at all into knives, or just need yours sharpened, you should definitely check them out.

This small shop is amazing! Top notch customer service, and products. Also, I wont take my knives anywhere else to get sharpened in Houston but here.

Great knives, knowledgeable staff. They will help you pick the best knife for any job. Daniel helped me pick a Japanese chefs knife. He answered every question I had and explained every difference between knives I was considering. If you’re thinking about getting a new knife for your kitchen, go see him.

Serenity combines utility and artistry perfectly. I am so happy with my purchase. I’ll be a repeat customer.

Wonderful people. Very talented and polite. The only place worth going to for a custom knife.

They are masters at their craft. Brought this knife in for restoration and reshaping. I highly recommend follow them on Instagram or Facebook for new knives they pop out regularly. I also had a custom knife for EDC and they went above and beyond.

When I brought my pocket knife and chef’s knifes for a much needed sharpening I was pleasantly surprised with the amazing customer care. The owner was very nice and answer all my questions with perfect answers. They had both my knifes done in under 15 minutes and I was even able to watch the last bit of sharpening.

What a cool place. This is a gem and they do a fantastic job on top of that. The entrepreneurial drive in this place really shows in their craft. A+ Ill be back

Went to Serenity Knives to get a couple of Enso knives sharpened and left very impressed. Not only do the knives cut like new (and as beautiful as ever) but it took less than 15 minutes. Additionally, Russell answered all my sharpening questions while he was sharpening the knives. I will be taking all my knives to be sharpened at Serenity Knives from this point forward.

Proud to say that I purchased my first quality EDC knife from Serenity Knives.I walked in just checking out what they have and doing my homework since since Im new to the knife community and had an idea of a few knives I wanted as my first quality EDC.I usually go some where check some knives out that I had my eye on and ask question at different stores to learn why I would pick one knife over a another. Then I sit on it for a day or to to make sure I dont impulse by something.I had every intention of doing that as I walked in into there shop, but i appreciate how they nerded out with me answering all my questions and making sure I picked the prefect knife for me and what I needed.Lo and behold I walked out with a purchase I dont regret; a Benchmade Mini Freek.There customer service and openness made me very comfortable open up and trust there opinion and not to just sell me something.In my opinion there normal guys you can have a conversation with that know there stuff about knives for sure.Also dont let the looks fool you, its a small place in a neighborhood which is different but they have a nice set up that does the job!Definitely going to follow up and try out there sharpening services up next!

Awesome selection of knives and extremely knowledgeable staff! Daniel answered all of my questions and helped me pick out a new EDC knife.

These guys are knowledgeable, passionate about their work, and true craftsmen. After they sharpen my kitchen knives, I feel like a better cook. After they sharpen my pocket knife, it slides through every task like butter. I’m really impressed and I highly recommend.

Great selection of knives. Fast friendly service!

These guys were cordial, knowledgeable, and helpful. A bit hard to locate, but worth the multiple u turns. (Pss..hey Serenity. Tell people its in a workshop behind a house) :-p

If you are looking for an amazing chefs knife or any knife in general, take a drive to Serenity Knives. I was randomly googling for a blacksmith while we were in Houston and they came up. We decided to stop by because I was interested in purchasing another chefs knife soon and I really just wanted to be able to hold different knifes to get a feel for what I may be looking for. We passed the place on accident and Im so happy we turned around.Russell was awesome. He was very informative and kind and took time to let me look and even try handling some knives until I found the one I wanted. He didnt try to push me into anything.His custom knives are so beautiful. Im definitely going to go back for a custom knife some time in the future.I didnt think I would walk out with a new knife, but Im so glad I did. I couldnt be any happier with my Miyabi!

Came in to sharpen 5 of my cooking knives and Im impressed. They repaired all the damages and packaged it up nicely for me. Will be coming back!

Had a great experience with sharpening my two Henckel kitchen knives. Fast-turn around and Daniel Cruz was extremely helpful explaining to me the ins and outs basics for kitchen knives. They also a phenomenal selection of pocketknives (Benchmade, Spyderco, We, etc) in addition to their kitchen and custom offerings. Sad I did not find this place sooner!

True professionals to deal with. I brought all my kitchen and pocket knives for sharpening because well I just don’t like the results when I do it myself. In most cases they were sharper than when I bought them. Totally impressed with the quality of work. Will definitely do future business.

I am very impressed with the quality of work at Serenity. I had a knife repaired and three others sharpened. We received the knives back in less than an hour. They came back good as new. I will be returning to have the rest of my knife set sharpened. I would highly recommend.

It is so hard to find anyone in Houston that can sharpen knives with a quick turnaround. These guys are pros and true artists in their craft. I dont think youll find anyone in town better than them.

I brought in my new knife to get sharpened and he did an excellent job. I am very pleased with the service. Highly recommend this place

Took this vintage Ka-bar hunting knife to Russell as it was kinda sharp when I got it and I tried to sharpen it with the stones I have but Russell corrected my mistakes very easily but then he knows what he’s doing and I left after about 15-20 with a very good edge so I will be going back for my knife sharpening soon form here on our.

So I was referred to serenity knives through a mutual friend Mike White. Once arriving I meet with Daniel. Daniel was very welcoming and knowlegeable about what I needed done. He showed me around the shop and even let me play with the expensive auto flip knives. I felt like a kid again. I will definitely be back and I encourage anyone reading this to take the risk and give serenity knives your business. They did a great job at an amazingly affordable price

Excellent sharpening. Large stock of gifting knives but the customs are where they excell. Anything you can dream up they can build for you. Knives and leather work are all hand crafted

The guys over at Serenity Knives are amazing. It’s the only place I’ll go to get all my knives sharpened. Their fast, competitively priced, and really know their stuff. They have also helped me out on a couple of custom projects and I couldn’t be happier with the results . Very friendly .

Super friendly and creative people. Quick knife sharpening service and their custom knives are functional works of art!

Excellent selection of knives and very friendly guys. I highly recommend stopping by if you are a knife guy.

I brought a a 6 kitchen knife in last week for Daniel to look at. I had been unhappy with the edge grind being set asymmetrical at 90/10 from the factory - he quickly reworked the knife to a 50/50 profile while I waited. Amazing showroom space with gorgeous blades. The entire team is very knowledgable about knives, metallurgy, and sharpening. If you care about your kitchen knives, I would highly recommend a visit.

Needed to get my wife’s knives sharpened. Very friendly, neat place and fantastic work. Definitely recommend. Lots of great quality knives and cutting boards etc.

Fantastic business. I had three antique cleavers that needed restoring and Daniel did an amazing job. They are incredibly sharp and look great. Highly recommend these guys.

I just discovered Serenity Knives and now Im an evangelist! The shop is lovely, and the sharpening customer service excellent. Im so delighted to have them in my neighborhood, but this gem of a business is worth a trip!

Never had a bad experience in 10 years, keep up the great work

Best dam knife store in Houston. I love these guys. Best customer care ever! Just call or show up

Very friendly service and a great variety of knifes that theyve got, definitely gonna be coming back in the future.

Do not let the rough edges (no pun intended) appearance of the shop fool you. Russell and his team do great work. From teaching sharpening techniques to building you a custom designed knife. Serenity Knives does it all well. Knife sharpening, custom production and sales. On my last visit I found out they have a new showroom as well, great stuff.

These guys did an amazing job sharpening my knives. But this time I came with a different project. I needed some G-10 grips cut down to fit my pistol. Daniel tackled the project with confidence and delivered exactly what I was hoping for. You guys are awesome!

Serenity Knives is a hidden gem in the Heights. Excellent job on a pair of scissors; very reasonably priced and sharpened scissors as I waited. Great showroom with top quality knives, several handmade at this shop. I will be returning with my knives before the holidays!

Made my first purchase from here today and I’m sure it won’t be my last. Daniel was very helpful, welcoming and knowledgeable! Their showroom made me want to buy every knife they had.

These guys are awesome, I was in and out in a couple of minutes and they sharpen my D2 steel Benchmade knife with an edge like a razor. They also had a knife room which felt like something out of a John Wick movie. Stellar customer service and hands down the best blade guys in Houston!

They are great people great service but really cant say anything else.

Dropped off 2 shun knives to be sharpened here, came back at close as I never received a call saying they had finished. Noticed at home that both the knives had come back with reshaped tips (probably had been chipped and reshaped). Also, one of them was not noticeably sharper than when I brought it in, as I still had trouble cutting vegetables post sharpening*Edit - Brought both knives in again after talking with Russell and he sharpened them and did a great job restoring them. I do wish that it had been brought to my attention up front, but they did a great job making everything right.

Went in to get a large sebenza sharpened and was very happy with the results. Also unexpectedly ended up purchasing pretty nice little pocket knife. Knowledgeable staff, Highly recommended!

I brought in 5 different knives to these guys and all came out great but one. It was a weird shaped knife so not their fault. All in all 5 stars.

We just had our kitchen knives done here for the first time and will now be going whenever we need them sharpened. Super friendly and professional. Offered tips on keeping them in good shape. Thanks guys.

Solid Dudes, solid knives. Daniel was super informative on my knives and they came back sharp as ever. I even had him do some of my case pocketknives, and im very particular about them. 10/10

The guys here are always super helpful, really prompt when I need maintenance on my knives and are super knowledgeable about both the product they keep on hand and what they can custom make. Couldn’t recommend this place enough

I recently had several Japanese kitchen knives sharpened at Serenity Knives and I could not be happier. I try to do a bit of maintenance sharpening on my own but Serenity put a near as-new edge back on my knives that I dont think I could ever achieve.

Great service and knowledge in a craft not many continue to do. I got all my knives sharpened and I got a lesson on how to keep them in great condition.

Exceptional work. They were able to grind out a chip and re-sharpen my vanadium-alloy utility knife in less than half an hour at a great price. Edge is still keen after several weeks of light use and cuts with no feeling of catching on dull areas. Highly recommended.

I got an expensive butcher knife as a present and had Russell sharpen it for me. He did an amazing job, took only a few minutes, and was very personable. I will definitely use him again! Highly recommend!!

Wonderful job with my chef knives. Great pricing and super fast. Finished in maybe 20minutes. Definitely will visit again.

As a culinary student I knew there would be a time where I would need to resharpen my knives. After weeks of trying personally and not seeing any results whether it be because of technique or utensils I decided to see a professional. After looking around I stumbled upon Serenity Knives. Russel and Daniel were very personable and took care of both my Chef knife and Paring knife! I would definitely make a return when the time comes again!

Great selection! Very helpful and knowledgable personnel!

Had a great experience today! Awesome little knife shop, super friendly and help full.

Very nice people and are extremely helpful. Brought my Benchmade in to get sharpened and also asked if theyd help me remove a stubborn pin in my balisong. They were able to remove it with ease and also got my knife really sharp. Definitely will come back whenever I need to get my knife sharpened.

Loved how everything is displayed. Very welcoming.

Great Staff. Great service. Would definitely recommend.

Best place to go for any type of knife work, and the people are very nice.Will definitely go again!

Awesome service. Great and friendly staff. Definitely worth checking out

They had a large selection of knives and Daniel did a great job of helping me find a knife to fit my needs.

Works nice. but theyre not honest. one person did the same job 25 one person for 40 dollars. I think its unethical.

Quick, friendly service and beautifully made knives.

I come and get my knives sharpened here and the guys are all nice and friendly! Come here if you want a good job done on a custom knives or a sharpen of an old knife!

Great service and very knowledgeable staff. I’d give them a 7 out of 5. Will bring our knives here again. Also can’t wait to buy a nice custom knife from them soon!!

My wife managed to break off the tip and bend my new Kramer chefs knife. Serenity went to work, ground down the tip and sharpened the blade to scalpel sharpness. I highly recommend them for knife sharpening/repair.

Just bought a self defense neck knife. ....very well made. ..would recommend his work

Awesome service, Awesome knives

Took my kitchen knives by there today and they had them sharpened within an hour. Great place and super quick service.

Amazing! My 25 year old Henkel knives are like new! Really interesting to watch this craftsman at work! Thank you!

Perfect labor.

Great job

This place did wonders for my baddly chipped Japanese chef knife! $250 knife saved by $20 worth of true craftsmenship. Very sharp, fixed the chips AND put a new tip on it. If you have high quality steel and dont want to mess with it (or mess it up) yourself or you dont have stone or whatever, definitely recommend. Only minor inconvenience was finding the place. No sign, so I called to make sure which house it was. Other than that, 5 stars!
