SharpeningTech

The service is great and I am very happy to bring my clippers to Ruben. I recommend this places to all my cosmo and barbers’ friends.

Ruben Hurricane hooked up my Andis Masters and T Outlines in no time. Very professional and reasonable prices compared what it would cost to purchase new. I cut my own hair and now it looks like I spend big money at a barber shop everyweek. I will definitely be back!

I have been using Ruben to sharpen my animal clipper blades for over 5 years. I clip dairy goats with these blades, the goats are usually dirty and dusty. He is the only clipper sharpener I have found who’s blades will last me a whole season. I have even used Premier, and another company in Modesto and their blades came back sharp for 2 goats and then quit, then I ended up bringing them back to Ruben to fix their job. I will clip on average 20 full sized dairy goats with these blades 2 sets of #7FC 2 sets of #40 2 sets of #10 per season. They usually last the whole time! LOVE his skill and timely turn around!

I am very disappointed but not in the quality of work since I didn’t manage to get my scissors sharpened! I called ahead to make sure that I didn’t need an appointment and was assured that I didn’t. I traveled several miles out of my way, but when I got there the door was locked. There was one of those little signs on the door that says when they were returning, but one of the hands was broken off so I couldn’t tell when! The hours were clearly posted on the door, and it was between 2:00 and 3:00, so they were probably not at lunch. I will not be going back.

I have used Ruben about 3 times now. This last time I had 15 blades and 4 pairs of scissors. My 40 blade was on of the blades sharpened. After getting it back it would not stay on my clippers, my coworkers tried putting it on theirs and same thing. Blade would not lock. I spent over 120, so I am expecting everything to be working. I called him and explained the situation he said it was a bad spring in my clipper blade. Not sure where a spring is located in the blade? He told me to come in and bring the blade back to him, well I am working 6 days this week and do not have time, nor should I have to go to him for something that was not my mistake. When I told him it was working before he sharpened it and would hook on to the clippers fine, he got defensive and proceeded to argue with me. He told me to take apart an old blade to replace the spring again not sure what he means by this. He also said the spring weakens every time the blade gets sharpened. Still not an excuse my blade was fine before, why can’t you take ownership in the fact you may have messed up, and offer to come and fix it. I will no longer use Ruben to sharpen my tools, and as much as I spent I am very upset with his customer service skills.

Ruben is great!!! He’s been the only one to sharpen all of my equipment for the last 5 years, and he does an excellent job every single time! All of my blades and shears last longer after he sharpens them than any other company, including sending them back to Geib! I highly recommend him!

Definitely recommend sharpening and repair services from Ruben. I have been receiving services for over 6 years and never been disappointed. Being in the grooming industry I know how important it is to make sure your equipment is in top notch in order to give the pets in my care there very best experience.

Ruben is great. I took 5 pairs of garden sheers of various sizes and blades. He did a great job on all and recommended a few things i can do to take good care of the tools at home.
Great service and prices. :)

I highly recommend using this company. I am a mobile Dog Groomer and he sharpened my grooming blades. I had my blades previously sharpened by another service and they were put back together incorrectly. Ruben the owner fixed them and Sharpened my grooming scissor. The scissors had not been that sharp in years no other service had made them as sharp.

I brought a brand new Gerber knife in to be sharpened because it was a little dull from the factory and Sharpening Tech (Ruben) turned a dull new knife into a knife with a VERY uneven wavy cutting edge. I could have done a better job with my old sharpening stone. I went to a «professional» because I wanted a nice even edge. I added a picture to show you how bad the blade looks. I would never recommend this company.

Need blades, scissors, knives, etc. sharpened? Go to Ruben! He is by far the best around. I have been using his services for about 6 or 7 years now, and will not trust anyone else with my tools. I found him years ago in a state of desperation after I spent 150 dollars getting my grooming tools sharpened, only to get them back completely dull and not in working order. (I won’t mention who sharpened them prior to Ruben, just to be nice.) Anyway, Ruben took my tools on and got them back in working order and sharper than when they came out of the package. I swear by his work and highly recommend you take your tools to him if you want the job done properly the first time. He is also amazing in the sense of honesty and integrity. He never tries to get you for more money, he always calls if tools are too old to sharpen and covers possible options with you, calls to say tools are ready when he says he will, and also educates you on ways to make tools work better and last longer. Not to mention he has a stellar sense of humor and is so very personable and kind. Again I will say, go to Ruben! He will not disappoint, and you will not want to take your tools to anyone other than him again.

After my local guy in Santa Rosa retired and closed his shop, I tried using a different local sharpening person, but that ended up being a big mistake. My Lister large animal clipper blades (at about $ 55 per set) were ruined, or so I thought. Thankfully I found Ruben online. He was able to correct the blades that were sharpened incorrectly from the prior person. I have used Ruben numerous times for sharpening small (snap on) and large (Lister) blades that I use for horse clipping. He does a fantastic job, blades are very sharp, and well packaged when shipped to me. I use Ruben’s mail service for all my blades since I am not local. I always know I will receive consistently great service and excellent communication from him. I highly recommend Ruben and Sharpening Tech for all your sharpening needs.

Great sharpening job on my grooming tools! Even after I tried another sharpener once before I found Ruben and had to get numerous tools redone and corrected. Great guy, great job and I will always go to Ruben at SharpeningTech even if I have an emergency need (but want it done right the first time)

Ruben came to my pet grooming salon in his mobile van and improved my productivity in a matter of an hour. For the past year I having sent my blades off to be sharpened (sometimes gone for days) and they still felt dull. He showed me how my blades were being sharpened but the parts were loose and they are working much better since he fixed 15 of them. He also changed by clipper drivers and a damaged cord. I am so happy to find someone with the same work ethic as myself — educating my customers. I am his customer now for life.

I was in a pinch and needed to have some chef knives sharpened. I’m legally blind and don’t drive anymore so bringing them to my local Raley’s for their free knife sharpening began to be hit and miss. It was great to find a service that came to my house. Ruben was great to deal with. He was professional, knowledgeable and went out of hos way to accommodate me on a tight schedule. Ruben provided me with a valuable service at a reasonable cost and I would use his services again.
