Ranch and farm tools
Valley Center properties need more than kitchen knives sharpened, and that work is a big part of what David does. He takes down horse clipper blades so the comb and cutter sit flush again, sets horse shears for heavy coats, and grinds wood chipper blades back to a balanced, factory-grade edge. He also sharpens pruners, rusty pruning shears, axes, hatchets and machetes.

House and ranch visits
If a Saturday stop doesn’t suit you, David comes to you. All he needs is room to park next to the job. Bigger jobs, like a whole kitchen’s worth of knives or a shed full of tools, are best as a visit, since you don’t have to carry everything in.
