Great service and fast too
What a great and efficient service, my rusty old tailoring shears were rejuvenated and were well received by family as they were a lost heirloom.
I wholly recommend Paul and the team fir a great job

Blade Buddy......Brilliant 👌
I purchased a Blade Buddy from Barras Blades, which they manufacture themselves, and it's just what I needed. I can now clean my clipper blades thoroughly without injuring my fingers.

Paul is a very genuine down to earth person who takes great pride in his work , which is a rare thing to find nowadays. He sharpened my wife's floristry scissors and secateurs as well as my work knife . Unbelievably they were sharper than when new . Can't rate highly enough
