About the Owner

I'm Zak Bermudez, 6 years ago I wanted to start a business out of doing something I enjoy. As a child I was always fascinated by knives, to me they are one of the most interesting and useful tools, from simple stone blades in the caveman days to the fancy steel ones we know of today, the concept has always been amazingly simple: bring two edges close enough together and it cuts. A knife only performs as well as its edge. I enjoy sharpening, it gives me joy to help people enjoy cooking again with a freshly sharp blade. My passion for the craft is seen in my work, I don't cut corners, I guarantee satisfaction because I treat every knife like it's my own.
