1st time customer…dropped off a custom fillet knife and an old Bruks axe…both in dire need of blade repair and sharpening. Erik did an amazing job repairing both and putting the appropriate edge on each. I couldn’t be more satisfied with the price and quality of the workmanship. Will be a return customer👍👍
