Knife and machete services
Price list
I can customize and repair knives and machetes
Sharpening single edged knives and machete
Knife will be sharpened to a hair shaving edge. Does not include serrations. I can sharpen all sorts of blades including bowie, karambit, bayonets, hunting/skinning knives, kitchen knives, cleavers and machetes such as bolo, parang, kukri, golok, panga and pretty much any other type of machete. I can also sharpen lawnmower blades.

Regrinding a new point or shortening a blade
If you have a knife with a broken or rounded tip a new point can be ground on. This is just the cost of regrinding the point, ground spot may or may not match the rest of the blade's finish. This is for single edged blades, if you need this done to double edged blades it can be done but will be repaired differently. This is also a great option to shorten a blade if your favorite knife is too long to legally carry where you live.
Sharpening a swedge that currently has no edge
Check your local laws before sending your knife for this service, in many states doing this makes the knife a dirk or dagger and is illegal. This can be done on bowie, ka-bar, or any other blade that has a swedge.
Jimping a knife
Jimping can be added to a knife for extra traction on the spine of the blade, parts of the handle, the back or even the lock bar of a folder. Jimping will be 20 lines per inch.
Squaring spine of a knife
This is great if you have a knife with a rounded spine that you want to be able to strike ferro rods with.
Polishing knife internals
Pocket knife will be taken apart, cleaned and contact points polished to make knife open and close more smoothly. I can smooth a lock back, liner lock or frame lock folder. If the lock style you have isn't listed here feel free to send a message and I can answer if i can smooth it or not. Can not smooth the action on any knife that can't be easily disassembled by way of screws.
Polishing blades
Blade is hand polished to either satin or mirror finish depending on what you would like. This can also be done as a way to restore an old beat up knife.
Bead blasting finish off
If you have a blade that you want the finish bead blasted off I can do that. It can be done on pretty much any blade. As you can see in the picture its actually done on a kama but it can be done on any blade.
Adding blade choil, finger choil or ferro rod notch
If your knife doesn't have a blade choil one can be easily added. The blade choil will make sharpening easier or the choil could even be made large enough to serve as a finger choil or even as a ferro rod notch.
Rounding points on the handle
If there are any sharp spots on a knife handle causing discomfort they can be ground down. This is just the cost of grinding the spot down, ground spot may or may not match the rest of the blades finish.
Reshaping guard
Grinding off flipper/wave
Removing recurve from blade
Removing finish from pocket clip
Paracord lanyard

This is a great way to get up to 18’ of 1 single piece of paracord on a knife sheath for survival purposes. Shown in the picture are variations on an M10 scabbard. Can be done with or without extra paracord that can be used as a leg lash. The leg lash with be 5’ when untied. Can be done all as one piece or as 2 pieces as shown in the pictures. Also a great way to make your knife just a little more personalized. Contact me for colors I have in stock.

Scissors sharpening
Unsharpening a sharp blade
A sharp blade can be unsharpened to make it into a practice blade. Some do this for a budget practice knife or so they can have a practice knife that is exactly like their sharp knife. You may also want this service if you have children and the blade is just for display. This can be done to any blade you want unsharpened for practice. If you want the tip rounded I can do that as well for no extra cost.
