Testimonial
What Our Customers Are Saying
Found Warren by an internet search. I took 5 of my late father's knives to him and he took great care with them. They were sharp and ready for the upcoming holidays! Turn around was quick, Warren was very easy to communicate with and he is super knowledgeable about his craft. Highly recommend him to anyone! Thanks again!
A while back I bought a wet stone because I thought, "I bet sharpening my own knives is a relaxing and worthwhile hobby". And while there is a certain "zen" to sharpening ones own knives with a wet stone, it quickly turned into a chore that I had neither the time nor patience for, unfortunately. Which brings me to Honed by Jones. I had come by Honed by Jones's at a community artist/business event last month and decided to look up his business and text him yesterday (01/07/2026) to get my knives serviced. He responded quickly with his availability and address. I dropped my four knives (2 chefs knives, a carving knife, and a paring knife) off that day. Not more than 3 hours later, they were done and ready for pick-up! When prepping for dinner that evening, I was blown away by the sharpness and edge of the knives. They were completely revitalized and an absolute joy to use again! Warren, the owner, is a kind and approachable man who is clearly dedicated and passionate about his craft. I will continue to patron his small business for all my knife sharpening needs! I highly recommend his services to anyone looking to get their knives (or other tools) sharpened. Remember, a dull knife is a dangerous knife. So, you should get them sharpened by Honed by Jones! His price was very reasonable at $40 for the four knives. Upon pick-up they were safely wrapped in paper. Perhaps not a consideration for some, but worth a mention; my wife and I being brown/black people, we love seeking out and supporting black-owned, or other minority represented businesses. If that's something important to you, Honed by Jones is a business worth supporting.
Warren did wonderful work sharpening my knives at a mobile knife party! Pleasant and organized- he helped the neighbors too!
Warren was so nice! My friend hosted a knife party, that’s a thing now, and it was so convenient and easy! Pop in, see your friends, get your knives sharpened pretty quickly and be on your way. Warren had a cool little set up and did a great job! I was happy to get home and test my knife sharpness and he did not disappoint. Highly recommend him!
Getting my knives sharpened by Warren has been a game changer while prepping for dinner! Cooking is easier and faster, especially chopping vegetables. I watch cooking shows so I know the importance of sharp knives but I never took the time to have them done by a pro. I now love my knives. Thank you, Warren!
I’ve used this professional knife sharpening service several times and I’m always impressed. I first came to him after seriously denting my knife trying to open a coconut 😅—and after a few high-quality sharpenings, my knife is now absolutely perfect. I usually see him at the farmers market on Sundays, which makes it super convenient, and the craftsmanship is always top-notch. If you’re looking for expert knife sharpening, razor-sharp results, and a skilled local professional, I highly recommend this business. My go-to knife sharpener every time!
WOW! Such a great service. Communication is top notch. Service is sharper than the edge of my blades are now! Warren is really a cut above the rest. If you need any blades sharpened this is the best place to go! HIGHLY RECOMMEND
It is so convenient to have someone in town that can sharpen anything from tools to knives! So that they will work like they are supposed to! And not have to struggle to cut something! First I had Warren sharpen a couple of knives Now I'm going to collect my garden tools get an edge on them to make my life much! Much! Easier! Thank you Warren, amazing work and done in record time! I will certainly be sharing your name and trade with everyone I know!
Warren’s knife and shear sharpening services are truly 5 star. I have never had my knives sharpened by someone who has such professional equipment. He takes a lot of care and pride and it really shows. He did a wonderful job sharpening my knives and shears. Highly recommend!!
