I spent a lot of money on my knives and don't trust them with just anyone. Atavistic Edgeworks has a customer for life.

Years later after cooking with her many times at home cooking with her for our family I found a large knife in a cabinet that she had not used for many years because she was using the good one that was very sharpened; this knife was very dull, and to this day I have a four inch scar on my middle finger. Hence more people get cut on dull knives than sharp knives. I am now a self trained chef from my mother and others in my life; never ran or owned a restaurant, but love to cook northern Italian food for me & my wife and several friends, and extended family in another state. Anyway I have hired Stan (Stan's Slicer Service twice, and last week he brought back 18 knives sharpened in two days he personally picked up, and had delivered back that were perfectly done. One knife was my moms she gave me which was approximately 16" long & five inches wide and had a small nick in it; nick was gone & so sharp I could have shaved with it! His pricing is fair, does an outstanding job, and quick response. He also put food grade mineral oil on several knives on wood handles no xtra charge.

This negative review has been building for quite some time. I've lived out on the island for 10…read moreyears and shopped at this Ace the entire time. Over time, the customer service and general vibe of this store has gotten increasingly negative. I actually saw another recent review calling out the fact that the guy doesn't normally even take the time to review a hardware store, but the interactions are so negative that he felt like sharing and I couldn't feel more in agreement. I'm not sure what the deal is. Most employees are hanging around with RBF ready to look inconvenienced by the presence of customers. They like to give the impression of helpfulness shrouded in resentment and seemingly fatigue. I just got back from purchasing some tape which they insisted that someone help me with and then they sold me the wrong tape, which I then had to return to the store to return and buy the right tape. No, " I apologize for the inconvenience" or "sorry about that" Literally nothing. The dude that just "helped" me is just hanging back watching me return his selection about to cough up a lung. i'm starting to really believe that I'm being loyal to a fault, trying to give a small business some support, but honestly, I'd rather drive to another location or another business. Don't even get me started on the big guy that works outside where you pick up mulch- lol he's been a jerk for years! If misery loves company- they sure have all found each other. The exceptions to this should be mentioned but they weren't working tonight. The best part of the store is the garden department. There are some absolutely wonderful and knowledgeable people that work in that section!

Sur La Table is a whole experience!…read more Sur La Table was such a vibe! This class ended up being one of the absolute highlights of my trip to Jacksonville. My friend and I had the time of our lives, and it honestly felt like the perfect mix of learning, laughing, and connecting. One thing I loved most was how inclusive the whole experience is. Everyone gets a role, everyone gets involved, and you naturally end up chatting with new people. We met the sweetest couple and clicked instantly--it felt like we'd known them forever. Such a great way to build community while doing something fun. Quick note for anyone with dietary restrictions: I don't eat meat, and this particular class featured steak. They let me know that if I had called ahead, they would've happily made accommodations. So if you have allergies or restrictions, give them a heads‑up! They're extremely accommodating, which I really appreciated. We booked the Chef's Table date night class, and the menu was incredible. We made homemade gnocchi, a fresh salad, and a strawberry‑thyme sorbet that was a 10/10. The whole meal was simple, approachable, and taught in a way that made even "fancy" dishes feel doable at home. I left feeling inspired and ready to recreate everything in my own kitchen. Huge shoutout to our chef--he was from South Florida, and although I can't remember his name, he deserves all the praise. He explained everything clearly, shared a bit about himself, made everyone feel comfortable, and kept the energy fun and collaborative. His team and the store staff were just as amazing--kind, helpful, and genuinely excited to be there. From the safety walkthrough to the hands‑on techniques, everything was thoughtful and well‑organized. I'm already looking forward to coming back and doing it all over again. Thank you, Sur La Table, for such an unforgettable experience!

Luis was very knowledgeable, hands on, and engaging. It also felt very tailored to our experience level, as sometimes he would give more directions and less at other times. And, most importantly, the food was absolutely delicious. Our roasted chicken was so so juicy and tender, the mashed potatoes were perfectly creamy, the salad dressing was divine, and the chocolate soufflé was light and rich at the same time. Oh, and Luis made us some garlic confit that was the perfect addition! We had so many leftovers to take home too. I cannot wait to take another class at Sur La Table!

The quoted prices and timeframe seemed very reasonable and he knew all the right things to say to lead me to believe he had sharpened high end knives before. Well, I was gravely mistaken. When I picked up my knives they appeared to be sharpened with a cinder block. All 3 blades were extremely scratched as were both scales on all 3 knives. To boot, none of the knives were even sharp! They were less sharp then when I dropped them off! The only positive about this whole experience is that the owner was quick to offer to buy my knives and we came to an agreement where he would pay for the damage he did. Stay away from here.
