TERMS
At Proper Sharp we love happy customers. This service is intended to keep your mainstream Kitchen knives, Garden tools and general scissors working. It is not intended for high end items such as pro Hairdressing scissors and Grooming shears, Brush craft or highend hard Kitchen knives, carving or bushcraft axes, tomahawks samurai or any type of swords. Above is a list of items I do sharpen. All sharpening is carried out in good faith and although we do our very best to bring your items back to life we can not know what stress or stain the items have endured in the past. Sometimes knife blades can have hairline fractures. Garden tools can be over stressed and bent, also scissors may have been dropped leaving unseen damage. All this can lead to your item breaking when being sharpened. In the unlikely event of this happening to your items you will be informed of the situation and you will not be charged for any work done. We do not replace items that break but are happy to try and fix the best we can with your say so.
