Our clients say

Nowadays, it seems like quality customer service is hard to come by. Everywhere you look, the personal touch is being replaced with AI. I am willing to bet that many of our 30 and younger age groups have no idea what quality customer service looks like. Recently, I saw an ad on Facebook for sharpening knives, mower blades, scissors, anything that can be sharpened. It was from Peculiar Knife Sharpening, owned and operated by Cliff Kelley. I have been using my dull knives for years because I didn’t want to throw them away. I like the way the knives and scissors fit in my hand and didn’t want to throw them away for new ones. My son pointed out that new ones are so cheap. why spend money to sharpen your old knives? Meeting Mr. Kelley was an eye opener. He restored my faith in quality customer service. He explained the process and what each piece needed to have done. When he returned them, they are sharper now than when we bought them some hundred years ago and his prices were very reasonable. And he guarantees his work. If you want to see what real customer service looks like, Cliff Kelley has it in abundance. My thanks and appreciation to Mr. Kelley for a job well done, completed when promised, and the cost was affordable.

I had the pleasure of meeting Cliff Kelley of Peculiar Knife Sharpening Service. Besides being one of the nicest guys one will ever meet, he is also a true master of his craft. Mr. Kelley is the epitome of Customer Service. His goal is to leave the customer 100% satisfied. Should that goal not be reached initially, Mr. Kelley will happily work with you until that goal is achieved. To make things even better, Mr. Kelley will come to you in order to pick the blades up, as well as deliver them, once sharpened.

 

I gave Mr. Kelley nine kitchen knifes (ranging from a paring knife to a butcher knife; six 10” table saw blades, and two pocket knives. The kitchen butcher knife contained a damaged tip. Mr. Kelley restored the tip to original specs, as well as placing an edge on each blade that was better than when they were purchased new.

 

If you have blades that are dull, dangerous and in need of proper sharpening, give Mr. Kelley a call. He will treat you and your blades right, leaving you completely satisfied. He certainly has earned all my future sharpening needs.

Cliff was a joy to work with and a true professional. He communicated promptly and did exactly what he promised. When I caught a bug and could not pick up the knives as planned, he even delivered them to my home. I enjoy cooking and spend a lot of time in the kitchen. I have a good set of knives that were frustrating me since they had lost their edge. They had not been sharpened in over 10 years and he brought them back to better-than-new condition. It's great to be able to quickly cut through things in one slice, even small herbs and thin green onions. I will definitely be in touch with Cliff the next time I need a knife sharpened.

“I hate cutting and trimming raw meat. My newly sharpened knife made it quick and easy so I could get through meal prep much more efficiently!”

“I used a knife that always felt dull to me - even since I first bought it. And it was amazing. Like it was a different product! So exciting!” 

Darci K. 

"Hey! That silver chefs knife you sharpened for me has never been that sharp! Even when it was new it wasn’t like that. Yessir. I can see the edge and how you corrected all of the chips that were in it. I just cut through about 40 asparagus like butter! Thanks Cliff"

“I purchased a very nice set of knives from Germany. (Dalstrong, Gladiator Series) Even though they were made out of premium high-carbon German steel, we just couldn’t seem to get a good edge on them and I was starting to have buyer’s regret. I decided to have Cliff sharpen them. I was amazed at the result. Anything I slice with these knives is effortless. My first try was on some blueberries (not that you have to slice blueberries- I was just curious).  I was able to slice blueberries so thin they were almost transparent. It is truly a joy to have sharp knives!  I highly recommend Cliff for any knife sharpening needs you may have!”
