Established in 1990.

I studied at the University of Hawaii receiving a BA in history and fine arts. I also craft suits of armor from all periods and cultures. With this I give lectures on arms and armor from around the world. I also make and rent props to movies, filmmakers, and theaters. I also do custom leather work.

Called 2 hours ahead to make an appointment.
Brought him one of my knives that someone had borrowed and trashed to his shack.
About 20 minutes later I had the knife back good as new.
Great service and a stellar job.

Wolfe is super professional, knowledgeable and passionate about his craft. He was quick, thorough and surprisingly affordable. He charges roughly about $ 5 a knife but it really depends.
What my family really appreciated about Wolfe is that he gives his honest, professional opinion on things and he educated us about our knives! Currently we own Henkels but he hipped up to the the type and origins of the knife depending on the number of «Henkel men» on the blade. Neva know dat!
At any rate, not only does he sharpen regular resident knives, he seems to be THE guy restaurants call to have their stuffs sharpened too. So again, he knows his stuff. Will definitely go back to him for all my knife sharpening.

Super impressed with Wolf’s work and professionalism. Do call before you come down, but he’s there when he says he will be. My knives came in pretty beat up, and I have to say, I’m very impressed with how careful I need to be when I unpack them and start using them. Fantastic job.

Wolf is the MAN! He sharpened my Robot Coupe Blixer 3 blade that had dulled from years of use. Sweet! Works like a charm again. He also sharpened one of our kitchen knives to a fine edge! Perfect. Great service at a great price. Thanks for the help. Highly recommended!

Greywolf is superb. Please call him for an appointment as he is busy training apprentices and teaching. He answers all calls, charges reasonable prices, charged less than his estimate, is personable and gives excellent service. He also gives useful advice. A good man with good knowledge.

With some trepidation, I took my Mac, Shun and several Henckels knives to Wolf as they were in dire need of sharpening… I called first and he met me outside at the appointed time. Within 15 minutes he handed them back, polished and extraordinarily sharp! Fee is around $ 5. apiece, which is very reasonable. We talked story for about 20 minutes about how best to care for and store knives… it is very evident that he loves what he does! I’m taking my paper cutter to him tomorrow :o)

Wolf is the man! Great communication and a wicked personable guy. Met me at the shop and had me out of there in about 30 minutes with some sharp a$$ blades. Gave great tips to keep the knives sharp and long lasting. Definitely will recommend to all my friends. Thanks Wolf!

Very good experience! My knives are James Bond sharp! I called Wolf and he was very personable and pleasant. He prefers that people make an appointment and he made it very easy to schedule a same day appointment. I went shopping at Times market while he sharpened the knives. Then 15 minutes later, job was done. He is a really nice guy. After sharpening my tools, he gave me a complete guide as to how to keep them long lasting. It was very informative.

Wolf was fantastic! Same day service, beyond reasonable prices, easy to find location. And of course, mirror edges on my knives. At first, they were so sharp, I had to be careful not to cut into the cutting boards in class. After one month of daily use, the edges are still crazy sharp. Loved the tips and advice for how to maintain the edges between sharpening services, too. Be sure to bring cash, or grab some at the ATM just inside Times. I’ll be back every time I need to sharpen my knives.

After suffering from dull knives I finally went on the hunt for a sharpener. What I found was unexpected and a true pleasure. After a short conversation and making an appointment I brought in 5 knives, a Dirk, and a pair of scissors. 30 minutes later my knives could mimic the scene from kill bill where the light glimmers off and blinds the opponent. Wolf is just an all around great person and serves his customers with an old world feel. Knowledgeable in many art forms and able to eloquently convey this information in an unbiased opinion I look forward to coming back again and again. Highly recomended

This is it!
CES is the best when you need your knifes sharpened.
I can’t believe how sharp it is. Cuts newspaper like nothing.
Fast while you wait service. Great price! Typically around $ 5– ea bright and shiny.
Gray Wolf really knows his stuff when it comes to bring out the best edge on your favorite Chef knife.
Make an appt because his hours vary.
