I am very satisfied with the quality of the sharpening of my hedge clippers. Because of the locality of his business, I find it even more rewarding.

Johnny, the owner, was prompt in responding to my inquiry about getting my mower blades and kitchen knives sharpened. I ended up only getting my mower blades sharpened as I didn't have a good way of transporting my kitchen knives (FYI, will be just putting them in a box next time as he will put individual sleeves on the knives when he returns them to you after sharpening).His estimate for when my blades would be done was very reasonable and accurate. The blades came back incredibly sharp and perfectly balanced. The blades caused no vibrations when I used my mower and did a fantastic job at cutting my grass evenly and precisely.I strongly recommend his services as he is the owner, operator, and creator of his own proprietary system for knife sharpening. Will be getting all of my cutting implements sharpened by him going forward without any hesitation.

Flexible scheduling, fast service, and reasonable prices—no other place you need to go! The last time I got my lawnmower blade sharpened, it took four weeks—Impeckably Sharp took about 40 minutes. Did a great job and about half the cost of most places.

Johnny is awesome! I had a small bench made knife done for my partner and he absolutely loved how it turned out. Johnny was very helpful and finished the blade in under 5 minutes. Very quick and efficient!

Johnny has the secret sauce to make all your knives better tools. I had no idea how useful a truly sharp knife was. I used to buy cheap knives and throw them out when they went dull. Now I bring brand new expensive knives straight to Johnny so I can use them to their full potential. Thanks Johnny!

Johnny from ImPECKably Sharp did a fantastic job on my knives. I have had my knives sharpened by other “professional” services as well as by butchers. My knives are sharper than they were from the first day I bought them! Johnny schedules appointments for your arrival and has the knives ready the same day. He places each of them in a knife sheath plus wraps them in extra heavy duty butcher style paper before placing in a bag when he hands them back to you. He also really emphasizes how sharp they are and to be extra careful when handling them. I highly recommend his business. You will not be disappointed!!

Great Service! He transformed old stock generic knives into slicing machines! Also brought some life back into some great family knives that had dulled due to years of use, while maintaining the original character and shape.

Highly recommend: good quality, great customer service ! I wanted to get my axe sharpened on a random Sunday and he was able to make time for me to do it that day since it was a small job and he had time (he normally takes reservations). He operates out of his garage but its a very nice service, fair pricing, and I will definitely come back in the future.

I wish I had found imPECKably Sharp sooner! We'd been putting off getting some kitchen knives sharpened, and after reading the glowing reviews I decided to give Johnny a try. He was easy to work with, the communication was great, and I got my knives back in just a couple hours - slicing better than ever. We will definitely be back!

Mr.Peck’s service is truly phenomenal. I would recommend his work to anyone looking to sharpen their knives, scissors, & tools (trimmers, shovels… etc).Very quick turnaround time, cares about his work, and is reasonably priced.

I’m ashamed to say that the knives I brought to ImPECKably Sharp were in rough shape. They had been dropped, used as pry bars and screwdrivers and used to cut everything from cardboard to 14/3 wire.The knives I got back were incredibly sharp. The proprietor warned me to be careful with the knives, but I assumed he was just hyping his work. Well I ruined a pair of shorts by innocently wiping a newly sharpened knife against my leg to remove a smug from cutting jerky.Professional, great communication and great product for a decent price. I will do business here many times in the future.

My experience with Impeckably Sharp is that He (Johnny Peck) is the best knife sharpener in Lexington Kentucky. He has a specific method to his madness! He puts a keene razor edge on all of his blades. Not just kitchen knives, but all blades, yard tools, scissors, pocket knives, any kind. With other knife sharpeners, I have found that the quality of the blade edge does not hold very long and have to be reserviced! But the quality of Impeckably sharp you can go months and months without reservicing! I highly. recommend him and his service is prompt with fast return and his fees are very affordable. I hope he stays in business. And I am blessed to have found him! Try him out some time and see what you think!

Johnny's work is outstanding. I used a mail away service once and they did a poor job. He not only got my knives sharp, they were better than when I bought them. Great price and turn around time. I will use him again and highly recommend. You wont be disappointed.

Had 3 knives brought back to better than new. Quick and friendly. A dull knife is dangerous and no fun to use. My wife says she enjoys cooking again. I will definitely be back in about 6 months.

I had been searching for a knife sharpening resource since moving to Lexington. Based on an online search and reviews, I tried imPECKably Sharp, bringing Johnny three knives. The service was great! Easy drop-off and pick-up scheduling with very fast turnaround time. Most importantly, the workmanship was great. I returned with five more knives right away after the initial service. Great quality and service again. Highly recommended.

I am so glad I discovered imPECKably Sharp. Johnnie is a true craftsman. It is so nice to have sharp knives again. Do yourself a favor and take all your knives and scissors to him. He even sharpens lawn mower blades!

Impeckably is top notch. He was very quick with the turn around and the finished work was great. I will be giving him much more business in the near future. If you have any equipment that requires a sharpening, this is the place. I have used other services in the past, the blades have returned abraded, and the sharp was unsatisfactory.

imPECKably Sharp service was great! They turned around 4 kitchen knives in one day with great results. Their pricing is great along with their customer service. I would highly recommend them for any level of knife that is needed to be sharpened.

I found Johnny’s service through the grapevine, a friend of mine referred me here. I took him three Benchmade knives I own and the same friend’s Cold Steel pocketknife, and to be honest, I know for a fact that my knives are sharper now than when they were brand new. Benchmade as a company offers sharpening for life on all their knives, for free. I don’t care, from now on I’m taking my knives here to have them taken care of, because the quality of work, turn around time, and prompt service Johnny and his wife offered were just so impressive to me. Great job guys, keep up the good work!

My knives weren't this sharp when I bought them new! Fast turn around, great price, excellent service! I'll be back yearly.

we are BESS Certified

What does BESS certification mean?

It means we are able to test the sharpness of your blade after treatment with our BESS certified sharpness scale.  We sharpen better than factory sharpness and we provide you metrics!  When you come to imPECKably Sharp LLC, your knives will be scary sharp after our professional sharpening services!

Have you invested in that good set of knives?

There is nothing worse than spending good money on knives that were once sharp but now have lost that sharpness over time and everything you’ve tried hasn’t helped make those edges sharp again.  We can bring those dull blades back to life at a very reasonable cost!

What makes us different?

At imPECKably Sharp LLC, we understand the frustration of reaching for your knife and it not meeting your expectations any more because the blade is so dull.  We developed a proprietary sharpening system using high end sharpening equipment along with our expert sharpening techniques to give you an unparalleled sharpness that doesn’t cost a fortune.

 

Check out our before and after videos below to really see how imPECKably Sharp LLC can bring your dull blades back to life!

Watch to see How we Provide Results!

After Johnny applied his imPECKably Sharp sharpening techniques, this knife went from a 531 to a 107!  Based on the BESS certification values, this knife’s sharpness now scores between a “utility razor blade” and a “double edge razor blade.”  To give you a frame of reference, a brand new high end cutlery edge typically scores between 250-350.  So grandma’s old knife now has a sharper edge than brand new high end cutlery!

NOW, here is the real proof on how sharp grandma’s knife is after Johnny applied his expert sharpening techniques.  Watch how easy it is to slice through a tomato and create paper thin slices.  If you have old knives you never thought could be useful again, bring them to imPECKably Sharp LLC and you’ll be amazed how we can bring your dull blade back to life!
