I just wanted to tell you what an improvement in performance my knives are. They seem even sharper than when they were new. There is nothing better than a sharp knife in food prep. I sliced garlic paper thin for pork tenderloin with white wine garlic sauce. Thanks again and I will be calling again when they need resharpening.

I love the scissors Alicia sold me -they are fantastic! They fit my hand perfectly and are very light weight so it doesn’t hurt my hand to do a lot of scissoring. And with the butterfly finger holes, it is very comfortable with my tendonitis issues (which, by the way, the butterfly was all the rage at the grooming conference – she is ahead of the curve in that regard).
Alicia’s service is so convenient. She came to my mobile grooming salon to sharpen my scissors which has helped me tremendously as I used to take them 50 miles away to get sharpened. She picks up clipper blades where I am grooming and within a few days brings them back to me.
This is such a terrific service especially for a mobile groomer who has little time to be mailing blades and scissors out to get sharpened.
Thanks for bringing this great service to our area, Alicia!

My knives were so dull: I couldn't even cut a tomato without crushing it. Cutting meat at dinner was a joke. Then Alicia came to my house to sharpen my knives.
To be honest, I was skeptical. I wasn't sure they would actually be sharper than they were before. After the knives were sharpened, I thought I would test them to see how sharp they really were. I held up a piece of paper and the knife actually cut the paper hanging in the air! The tomato? Smooth as silk, and no mess. It cuts through dinner meats like melted butter. Incredible!
I would suggest her services to anyone who wants sharper knives and less frustrating preparation times.

I remember the day I bought my first pair of sewing shears. They were an indulgence I could ill afford but they’ve served me well for 38 years. The few times I had them sharpened, I was always disappointed -- I longed for how they cut when they were new.
Then along came Alicia and my dull days were over. Not only do my Fiskars cut like they were new shears, she sharpened my other clippers, scissors and garden tools beautifully. What a difference. Her work is fast, careful and amazingly inexpensive (she should charge us more!).

Alicia did a great job on all my knives and scissors. She comes to your house or place of business-- she has everything in her van. She even gave me tips on how to maintain the sharp edges. Food prep goes quicker & easy thanks to the sharp edges!

Alicia was highly recommended to me by a fellow grooming professional and I can see why. She is a sharpening professional that has been trained by a true master sharpener. Not only that, Alicia has brought new life to my previously dull shears and blades. I thank you Alicia and my customers thank you!

Just wanted to thank you for the great job you did on my shears!! There was even a pair in there that you did that I thought I would never use again because they were so bad. But I was using them yesterday!
I am so happy and relieved to find someone who will come to our shop and do a great job!!! Thank you !!
