True owner operated, mom n pop business for sharpening cutlery of all kinds, for home use and commercial use, in the handy format of a mobile sharpening truck. The abbreviated review is to say if you're looking for top notch sharpening at super reasonable rates you'll want to find this business. So to start I will link the page on their site that has their scheduled locations. https://tvmsharpening.com/schedule/ Right now they seem to have the truck parked in parking lots of small community grocers. Works for us! They'll also do house calls, if you have the amount of work to justify it. I'm thinking an annual or bi-annual community event in my neighborhood for the truck to park and neighbors to get their knives sharpened would be a great idea. The sharpening tradesman, Robert Barkley, has a sharpening shop set up in the back of the truck and a very nice woman, maybe the missus, is in the front taking in the items to be sharpened, writing out the invoices, providing time estimates for the items to be completed. (Plan on a couple of hours, plus or minus, depending on how many jobs are ahead of you and how many items you have to drop off. They will text you when job is done.) Both delightful people and I knew this would be so when on our first encounter Robert mentioned getting a pair of shears someone had brought in ahead of us as being a "bearcat" to reassemble for the unusual spring mechanism . That is the phrase used by my dad's relatives from the mid-west in the day and it was music to my ears. And to give you an idea of the fun sense of humor of this owner, when I unwrapped the knives at home I found his business card tucked in with a band aid stapled to the back. Sharp knives...band aid.. Clever! ;-) The first tranche of kitchen knives we brought in left the truck the sharpest they've been in a long time! Perfect edges. As a...umm...well seasoned home cook who has been passionate about local food sourcing and cooking for umpteen decades, cooking keeps me sane, this was a great start on the short list of 5 items I gave my husband of umpteen decades "minus" in preparation for a "Big Zero" birthday I have coming up. At the top was, "Get my knives professionally sharpened." Now he can check that one off and move on to the next item on the list. An equally practical entry, "Get my watch band resized." (Lucky for him have always been a cheap date. ;-)) read more

Exceptional work. I brought in a total of 11 knives to be sharpened and fine tuned and they produced amazing results. Beautiful work, excellent customer service and if I do say so myself they both have a "razor sharp" sense of humor :) very fair pricing, so I always tip them as every service requested is completed beautifully. It is hard to find a reliable business at all these days and this one takes the cake! If I could give more stars I would! read more

Treasure Valley Mobile Sharpening - these are family heirloom knives that were both pretty destroyed. Now are beautiful again. - Knife Sharpening Near Me - Star, Idaho

What a great experience yesterday. Made an appointment a few weeks ago and messaged the owner who was very responsive and great communication. I loved the fact that this was a mobile experience and the owner arrived in time and even made arrangements to arrive a little early. The price and quality was exceptional for the quality of work thy was put in. He ended up sharpening around 15 knives and and all for the great price of $75. I even had the chance to use a few of the knives yesterday and. Both were razor sharp. If you are in the market for sharpening this is by far the best experience I have ever received. Great Value, Great Prices, Great Customer Service, Great Follow up and worth every $$$ read more
