My kitchen knives are frighteningly sharp!…read more [cue the horror movie violins] This place is great! They do mostly B2B work, but they were happy to sharpen my kitchen knives for me. It was a challenge being separated from my knives, and I'm a serious enough cook that I was way nervous about entrusting my precious Wustofs to a complete stranger (I'll be honest, it was a pretty emotional moment for me... I was almost hyperventilating as I drove away). But they did an amazing job, and even seemed to get the emotional attachment to sharp objects. I forgot to save their contact info after the first time I brought my knives to them, and I took me a long while to track down this business. I had to bring my knives in to kitchen store places in the meantime, and I've not been happy with the service or prices for this service elsewhere. So I'm glad I found them again-- reunited at last!

The guy was amazingly helpful, knowledgeable, and willing to offer suggestions and tips. When I got my knives back they included a little note with a recipe to test them out and ab"thank you". It was really nice and I didn't know they give a portion of sharpening and class sakes to pay off student lunch debt (which is a ridiculous thing tonhave exist). They hold monthly classes for skills and sharpening as well as custom orders. If you can't make it during the day they have a drop box behind the shop you can put your knives in and they'll text you with updates. I will definitely be coming back for any knife needs.

Curt's Small Engine Repair is awesome -- A+…read more I really can't say enough good things about Curt. He did a great job on my equipment, he's prompt, his prices are reasonable, and he's a very nice guy. I gave Curt 3 things to fix. My MOWER (which was an urgent repair) had a blown head gasket. Curt let me know quickly and he didn't B.S. me about the whole thing. It wasn't worth fixing so I just bought a new one at Home Depot. He fixed the carb on my SNOW BLOWER (actually, he installed a new one) and he did other maintenance. So I'm all set. Bring on the snow! Curt did a bunch of maintenance on my GARDEN TILLER, including finding a transmission seal that's no longer made by the manufacturer. (He found it on Ebay.) This one was tricky because it's a vintage heavy duty tiller with a modern Honda motor. Last -- but not least -- he cleaned up everything for me. And when he dropped off my stuff, he did me a favor and brought his air compressor and filled the tires on my three 2-wheel dollies and on my bicycle. Go see Curt if you need help, he's great! -Daddy Maxx Retro

Curt was amazing. We needed lawn blower blades sharpened, so I googled a close location in Ramsey…read moreand saw Curt's Small Engine Shop pop up. I read the reviews and saw only one woman posted a negative review. I read that review and realized that it wasn't that Curt did a bad job, it was all about his political views and the fact they didn't align with hers. Seriously. What an eye roller! We called Curt on a Saturday, he answered and said he was free immediately for blade sharpening! He's about 5 minutes up the road. He did a fantastic job. We asked about the one review and he chuckled and said "I just don't like fixing 2-stroke engines, you can buy a new one for $200, so there's no way you can make money off fixing a leaf blower." To me that speaks of Curt's character in realizing the value of not only the different machines, but the value of his time, and his customer's time. We were able to finish a project in a day thanks to Curt. He was very nice and did a fantastic job! Totally recommend him.
