Bonneville Sharpening Service is a fantastic choice for your sharpening needs. I dropped off 4 kitchen knives, scissors, and a small axe to be sharpened and they were ready to pick up 2 hours later. Doug, the owner, even brought me into his workshop to show me what he did, some of the tools he uses, and gave some recommendations on different products for taking care of blades at home. Easily would recommend Bonneville Sharpening to anyone looking for sharpening services. I will definitely be using his service again in the future.

I recently inherited a bunch of old knives who were owned by my great-great grandfather, who was a butcher. These have been in my grand-parents kitchen drawer for a very long time. I wasn’t sure they could be refurbished. They were taken to Bonneville sharpening, and I could not be more thrilled with the outcome. They are once again a wonderful and useful family tool. I can’t recommend Bonneville Sharpening enough. So grateful to have the heirlooms back in working order! Thank you Doug!

The most dangerous thing in the kitchen after raw chicken is a dull knife. I love chicken so the best I can do is have really sharp knives. Fast turnaround, great price and really nice. No hesitation on recommending. I will def be a repeat customer.

Worth Every Penny! Outstanding work and reasonable prices. Dropped off on a Wednesday and had everything back on Friday. 14 knives, two loppers, three scissors, and some pruning shears. All looking brand new with blades back to their original sharpness. Doug, the owner, is very personable and did a great job communicating with me throughout the process. I would recommend his services to anyone in the valley. We’ll use him again the next time we need anything sharpened!

I contacted numerous places in the Salt Lake valley, and Doug was by far the best communicator. Importantly for us he also does serrated blades which other locations do not. We dropped off three knives, two serrated on a Friday night and he had them ready for us the next afternoon, nicely wrapped up. All the knives were wonderfully sharpened. It was a bit more of a drive for us to come from the south end of the valley, but Im very glad we did. The cost was lower than other locations, the communication was superor, and the hours were more convenient.

Doug got back to my initial phone inquiry within minutes, setting up a time that was convenient for me. Meeting up with him I was pleasantly surprised when he told me he would quote me before getting to work sharpening my knives (believe me, I had been dreading a huge invoice). His rates were very reasonable but the best part was when I got home. I gave him knives that hadn’t been sharpened in decades; these were hand-me-downs from my college roommate’s grandmother. I went home and tried slicing one piece of a tangerine with each knife and they all glided through, despite the fact I had left it out to dry to really test the knives. If you live in or around Salt Lake City THIS is the guy to go to.

I HIGHLY recommend Doug when you need your tools sharpened!I took my own, and later my moms, sets of gardening shears and loppers.  Theyd all been used for years at various friends gardens and yards, and were sorely dull.Communication is key to me, and Doug was highly responsive via text, gave me an estimation of cost and (short!) timeline.The quality of work on the sharpened blades is flawless, and theyre cutting as good as new!  He finished them when he said he would.He met curbside with touchless hand off, wearing a mask, and we even chatted landscaping (mutual passion!).

I had a great experience with Doug. He was very communicative and easy to coordinate with. My knives came back sharp and good as new. He even helped work on some medical grade tools I have and did a fantastic job with those. I will definitely use him in the future

I feel like I discovered a treasure when I found Doug at Bonneville sharpening ! I left all my gardening tools as well as several knives and some scissors with Doug, and two days later I had all new edges! I could actually see how smooth and sharp they were. His passion for his craft is evidenced by his fine work and reasonable prices! A rare find...Thanks Doug

Bonneville Sharpening (Doug) is top notch! The experience from start to finish is incredible. Doug is extremely responsive and has such a personal touch - he makes you feel like his most valued customer from square one.Hes so passionate about the craft, and his sharpening skills are amazing. When I notified him that I was coming to pick up the knives, he invited me up to provide a lesson on home upkeep and had a table set up outside for me because of COVID. Wonderful service! Would recommend to anyone.

Bonneville Sharpening Service was an absolute delight to work with. Doug, the owner, is possibly the most pleasant service provider I have used in Salt Lake. It is an easy drop off and in 24 hours, pick up. I brought him over 20 knives, 2 pairs of scissors and pruning shears. He went over all of them with me as to what I wanted, checked with me via text on some questions and upon picking up, the knives were wrapped and tied in a strong paper for safety. I have used a few so far and the knives are fantastic. Doug did a superb job, with a highly professional attitude. Bonneville Sharpening Service is the only place anyone should trust with their knives or other items to be sharpened.

Doug is very nice, and is serious about his craft. He takes the time to walk through maintenance/care/upkeep on each of your knives so you get the longest lasting edge. He has become our families go to knife sharpener, we will continue to frequent his business. I would recommend him to anyone with any quality of knife. 10/10

I was really happy with Bonneville Sharpening Service! My grandfather passed down an original Bowie knife that he carried in the Vietnam War. Both me and my grandfather were very impressed with the condition of the knife. It really meant a lot to me that Doug handled it with such care. He sharpened the blade and put tsubaki oil on the handle to further preserve it. What was truly incredible was that he taught me how to maintain such a beautiful piece.Thank you Doug for your attention to detail and special care with my knife5 out of 5 stars, Definitely would recommend.

Doug sharpened 4 knives and 2 paper cutters for me for a very reasonable price. Once you get knives and ect. sharpened you always wander - why did I wait so long? The bread knife cut through homemade bread like it was butter and carrots sliced quickly with a smaller knife. I was satisfied with all of his work. Doug had everything ready in a timely matter as promised and offered curbside service. Highly recommended.

Doug at Bonneville Sharpening was great to work with and is a master craftsman. He took my old dull knives and worked them into perfect shape. Huge difference in the kitchen again. Over and above that, he took a minute to demonstrate proper sharpening for down the road with my own stone. Thanks a ton Doug.

This is a great, convenient, professional knife sharpening business. Doug put points back on my small paring knives and the sharpened edges on all my knives are excellent. My knives are all Henckels and are performing like they were new again. Plus he was able to get them back to me the next day. Check out his website, you will be amazed at what he sharpens and what he offers.

Doug was extremely helpful in going above and beyond for our needs over at Clever Octopus Creative Reuse Center. We appreciate his sharpening services which made our scissors, paper cutter blades and other tools like new. Maintaining tools with services like Dougs allows us to get the most life out of products without wasting the money and industrial energy in replacing them. This is the most environmentally friendly option and we strongly recommend! Thanks Doug!

Doug @ Bonneville Sharpening Service did a wonderful job rehabilitating our kitchen cutlery. It has been years since the last sharpening and now the set cuts like new.Quick turnaround (a day in our case) and very reasonable pricing.

I took a set of knives that I received when I got married 17 years ago to Doug for sharpening. They had never been sharpened before. Doug did an excellent job! Makes food prep a joy! Fast turn around too.

Bonneville Sharpening is my new BFF for pocket knife restoration. I came into possession of a Schrade Old Timer 80T Senior Stockman 3 blade knife that was in rugged and very rusted condition. I worked a good portion of the rust off, but needed professional help to really make this restoration work. Bonnevilles Doug came to the rescue. Same day service at extremely reasonable price. This rusted hunk of metal is now my everyday carry knife. Im very pleased with Bonneville Sharpening. Give them a try... you will be too! Tell them Uncle Paul sent you!

Best knife sharpening service Ive come across anywhere ever! I was on a road trip passing through SLC and needed to get my dull blade sharpened. Doug was incredibly responsive and friendly. I dropped off my knife and he took care of it immediately. Beyond honing the blade to a razors edge, Doug also gifted me with a bottle of local beer. Incredible customer service!

My flower shop does a number on clippers, scissors and pruners. After Doug did his magic on my entire collection, I was back in business better than brand new. Sharper than ever cleaned up and hand delivered with a smile. Excellent customer service and consideration for my time. Would definitely recommend. As a matter of fact I plan on having him do all our tools after the valentines holiday!

Thanks, Doug. The blade worked great, and my son was very happy with how the lawn looked after he used it. He wasnt paying attention and ran over a sprinkler head that was sticking up, and the blade really shredded it. Just goes to show how sharp it really was! Thanks for your service. I will recommend you whenever I have a chance.

Happy to have found Doug and Bonneville Sharpening. Long overdue care on our kitchen and chefs knives, pocket knives and Leatherman as well as my mower blade. Reached out on a Saturday and Doug responded immediately! Turned everything around same day and even tuned up the action on those that needed it with me asking. Happy to have found someone close, has pride in his work, and a local business to support. I would absolutely recommend his services.

Review №62

Doug was a pleasure to work with and our knives came back promptly and very sharp. Unlike my own feeble sharpening attempts the sharpened knives are holding the edge and making short work of our tomatoes weeks after his sharpening. I am looking forward to having him take care of our older shears and pruners before gardening season begins in earnest. I did not do an extensive comparison but I thought his rates were very reasonable and off the record I would have been fine paying more given the quality of service and results.

Doug sharpened and tuned my old reel mower, now it cuts grass as good as new! It is over 50 years old, and I remember many days mowing my parents lawn as a kid. Over the past few years, using it in my current front yard, its been getting a bit long in the tooth, and difficult to use. Doug not only sharpened the cutting element, but made sure the gears were relubricated and running smoothly. He replenished the wooden roller with linseed oil and even made sure to refasten one of the loosening grips! Great work, and hes a real craftsman who cares about his customers.

Review №85

Bonneville Sharpening Service is unparalleled. I just got my 15-year old Wusthof knives back and they feel sharper than new. A couple of old nicks are now unnoticeable. Doug doesnt use a household knife sharpener. He first puts a bevel on the blade using a belt sander, then individually hones each blade with stones by hand. The results are incredible. Doug also rubbed mineral oil on the block. Thats the extra mile! If you appreciate your knives, and have a high quality set, entrust them to Doug. (Full disclosure:. Ive known Doug for a number of years, since our kids were in preschool together. That means I can vouch for his integrity. Hes the best!)
