SHARPVAN Mobile Sharpening

Wow! What a great find. Was surfing the interweb because my set of 10 Henckels chef knives was in fairly poor shape. Thought about just tossing some of them and replacing them with new knives, right? Well I purchase this large set about 28 years ago and you know what? (Spoiler alert) The prices have gone up. So I decided to look for a place that could perhaps sharpen them. Looked at several different services and then stumbled across «Sharpvan». Jeremy, the owner, has some pictures on his website of knives that have been incorrectly sharpened or mistreated. Those knives looked good compared to a few I have in my collection, so I contacted him and we discussed what could be done. Although he caters mainly to the industry (chefs, restaurants and hotels) he does have services where you can drop your knives off and pick them up sharpened at various locations around the valley. Or even better, his mobile workshop can be booked to come directly to your home. There is a minimum charge for that service but it was very reasonable and less than what one of my larger knives would have cost to replace. Well I can’t praise his abilities enough. Knives that had been practically ruined by other knife sharpeners using large grinding wheels were brought back to life. I still can’t believe how he was able to salvage some of them but the end result is fantastic. All my knives are now usable once again, and all of them are sharp as a razor. Hopefully, I’ll take better care of them this go around, but if they do need sharpening again, this is whom I’ll call.

we hired Sharpvan in a kind of unique situation i own an electrical contracting company and we were hired to wire in some new equipment for a kitchen in chandler. well the equipment was purchased at an auction and did not come with directions. my guys were done hooking up all the electrical equipment and were ready to test the rotation on the big 3 phase mixer so it was plugged in but the problem was it was in the ON position already and started to turn and in the drum was a broken off knob from a previous incident not involving us and being that the knob was made of hard plastic and a piece of steel it chipped the blade of the mixer/​chopper pretty bad. but not to fear we hired SharpVan he was able to accept pictures assured me he could get it back to tip top shape he arrived when he said handle the project with ease accepted a credit card over the phone handled himself professionally and saved me from having to buy 500 $ worth of blades thank you SharpVan i wish you luck in your Business and will refer you to anyone else i know who needs your service

I have been using Jeremy’s sharpening services to sharpen my dog grooming blades and scissors or a couple years now and I’m very happy I found him. He is one of the most knowledgeable people I have encountered in his industry and always does a superb job. He comes highly recommended!

I found a flyer for this sharpening service at Von Hansons market. Though I’ve been burned by other ‘knife sharpeners’ in the past who have used grinding wheels and other machines that altered the temper of the steel, I thought I would give his service a try.
Since he is mobile, we connected by phone and determined when he would be near me. Since I have become distrustful of knife sharpeners from past experiences, I was a little skeptical (but hopeful)
I dropped off three cheapo Farberware knives (an 8″ chef, 4″ & 3.5″ paring), my pride and joy 7″ Shun Santoku, and my 15+ year old Benchmade Emerson CQC7 folding pocket knife.
Holy honed edges Batman! Although he uses an abrasive belt, every knife was sharpened to perfection! I’m a bit OCD when it comes to the quality of my blades and he did not disappoint! I’ve been cooking more in the past few days than ever just because of how much easier and fun it is to use my cutlery!
I dropped my knives off with him in a restaurant parking lot in Chandler, ran an errand at the bank, and stopped by roughly an hour later and they were all ready.
If you have a bit more money than time and skill, look him up. ~40 bucks for 5 knives coming back razor sharp is a treat!

Professional work and very accommodating. Love that this business provides great customer service. Will absolutely be using again!

Sharp, fast and cheap! Sometimes you can have all three!
He charges something like $ 0.58 per inch of steel. Let me tell you, if you’ve never had your knives done, this is DIRT CHEAP!
He even did my pocket knife back to sharper than it came from Benchmade.
I was super impressed with the guy, then I took the knives home and started cooking for 30 of my best friends. I used every knife in the arsenal, and for the first time in a couple years they worked like they should.
I would absolutely go back again.

There is nothing like a dull knife to ruin your day (or a perfectly good cooking session). What a convenient cure for such a frustrating problem.
Sharpvan is at the downtown market on Saturdays and we stopped by check it out. This guy knows his stuff and seems to be able to sharpen just about anything. He also has a nice selection of knives aboard. We dropped of 2 knives on our way in to the market and they were sharp and ready to go by the time we left — wrapped up with the tips stuck in a cork to prevent any mishaps on transport.
Now our knives are sharp and good as new.

I have been complaining about my knives for a while. They have become dull and lifeless. Well they got new life!!! My boyfriend I frequent the Phoenix Public Market and Farmers Market on Saturdays. Matthew had seen an ad that they offer knife sharping while you shop.
This morning I woke with a mission — MUST GET KNIFES ROCKIN AGAIN. What a great find. We were greeted by a young gentleman and when speaking to him, you can tell knows his stuff. He gives you a little laminate number and you can shop while he sharpens your knives.
We had 6 knives sharpened all sizes and lengths for $ 30, and we really only need twice a year. They looked great! He puts the tips in a wine cork to prevent them from cutting anything and wraps them in thick plain newswrap.
I highly recommend and the location is great. Win — win, a little shopping, dog friendly, wine bar, farmers market and food trucks — come out and new knives — I drove straight home and started cooking again.
