"Fantastic product knowledge and customer service. I originally went to have my Wusthof knives sharpened. The did a fantastic job. Then I noticed they had a lot of Chefs coming in with Japanese knives. I was thinking about upgrading my knives, but I am a novice at kitchen knives. Tyler, Melissa and Anton were very patient with me showed me several alternatives and explained the pros and cons of each knife. They were genuinely interested in p..."

"I’ve been getting my knives sharpened at PKH for years and have always been very happy with their work. Nothing compares to their consistency, skill set, and customer service. I unexpectedly ended up buying a knife tonight, three months before I intended to. Tyler (I hope I didn’t get your name wrong) was absolutely great at educating me in the differences in blades, types of steel, usage, and showed me nine knives while there. What started as ..."

"Chinese review The navigation was correct, and I parked in the parking lot in front of the store. Since I didn't want to buy kitchenware at a mass market store, I searched for a store specializing in kitchen knives on Google Maps and found this place. I only knew I wanted a good 8" chef's knife, and I didn't know anything else. The friendly staff showed me seven knives to choose from, each one looking exquisite and sharp. The staff patiently c..."

"This is a professional, top notch knife store. They have quality knives at every price point. If you love to cook and value your prep experience definately go here and let them put some knives in your hand. You won’t be disappointed because they don’t have to sell you on a knife, the right knife will sell itself. Shout out to Tyler who put up with my endless questions and over-the-top enthusiasm for upgrading my pathetic collection of old, dull k..."

"If you are into high quality knives selecting one is an incredibly personal thing. For me, the attraction has always been items that will stand the test of time, truly built to last, built to be used and even abused in a pinch. I have tried them all, all the big names boasting “overbuilt” or “hard use” folding knives. And on the face of it some of them indeed appear pretty sexy in that respect, until the day came when I picked up my first Medford..."

"Medford knife and tool . American made knives , for American made knife lovers ! The designs of the Medford knife attract those like myself who like overbuilt knives . Here is my interactions with Medford knives . I have bought Medfords both new from authorized dealers and on the secondary market . I have emailed the shop and always gotten quick responses from either Samantha W. or Amy Medford. Always professionally and helpful . When Greg Medfor..."

"Over a period of years, I’ve had the pleasure of owning several Medford knives; a TFF-2, a Panzer, a Theseus, and a Raptor neck knife. These are knives I have carried and used without fail for said years. Recently I received a Praetorian-Ti which I ordered direct from Medford Knife and Tool. Examining every inch of the knife upon receipt, it just screamed technical, mechanical, and aesthetic perfection…or as close to that perfection as is humanly..."

Michael Clack

"Sent my 187dpt in for Legacy Service to get the dlc stripped and my blade tumbled. I was amazed that I got my knife back in like a week and the blade is perfect. Samantha Wood and Lindsay Eichelman at MKT are the best in the business. They go above and beyond to really make you feel like family. Kody Frye is also awesome. He’s helped me several times and was very cool talking with him at blade show. Bottomline is if you want an excellent knife do..."

"Arizona Cutlery is by far the Worst of worst to bring your knives to get sharpened. I just had now 2 bad experience with tis business. I dropped off a pocket knife several weeks ago. Has 2 locking blades. I had the pocket knife for probably over 20 years now. It even had its own printed on blade called Pigeon Hawk with a bird. So when I finally got chance to run by pick up my pocket knife. I was automatically angry 😡 when I seen my knife. A empl..."

"Ordered this handcrafted Scottish Sgian Dubh from Scotland. When it arrived it had no edge at all. I went in to Arizona Cutlery and the owner helped me out. He could see this is an expensive and meaningful blade so he offered to sharpen it himself and as it was late afternoon he was up front and said he'd have it done first thing in the morning. It was only $5 to put this edge on my Sgian Dubh. The service was so well priced and impeccable that I..."

"I wanted a professional job. I brought my Benchmade vintage knives to be sharpened.The knives were made of ATS-34 a high carbon Japanese stainless steel made in the 90 ‘s. I asked them before I left them if they could do the work and they said they could. They lied and ruined my knives. They’re not a place for sharpening high quality knives. If you have old low grade kitchen knives and you are to lazy to sharpen them then this is the correct plac..."

Matthew Bond

"Would highly recommend this place for even just your household cooking knives. The sharpening services I have used a couple times now and they are fast, while you wait service. I got home and my blade was so incredibly sharp. It will cut through just about anything I put in front of it. Will definitely be returning there again to pick up some more blades for my kitchen"

"Outstanding selection of mid to upper grade knives and manufacturers. Knowledgeable staff eager to talk about the knife-world. First visit was for me: Copper Kershaw Leek and a Demko AD 20.5. Second visit was for Christmas gifts. Zero disappointments. If you're looking for gas station knives. . . This is NOT the place."

"This place is a hidden gem in North Phoenix. Don is a really nice guy and he has an incredible collection. Wish I had more money to buy more Knives! If you're looking for the perfect gift for anyone or want to add to your collection, they have what you need."

"Stay Away, ordered a new flashlight from them online and they sent me the wrong one that was all beat up but they placed it in the right box. What makes matter worst, I contacted the store and was told there was possibility they sent it to the wrong person. They said they would contact me back and see if they can get ahold of the person and retrieve it. I never heard back from them so I contacted them again. Then they told me they would never se..."

"Every time I go into this store No-one offers to help me or acknowledges me. I show at Williams sonoma/ pottery barn all the time. This particular store in biltmore mall has employees that do not greet customers. I always end up walking out and just ordering online . Very sad customer care. It happened today again ."

"Recently, I bought an expensive bottle of olive oil at Williams Sonoma in Biltmore Fashion Park for $42.95. It was intended as a gift for a friend, and along with that, I purchased several other items, making a significant shopping investment. Unfortunately, when I brought the bag home and started unloading the items, I noticed that the bottom of the olive oil bottle seemed to have exploded, causing it to leak from the bag. Naturally, I felt fru..."

"Credit card openers beware!! I had a very disappointing. Customer service experience at the Baltimore Arizona Williams and Sonoma. In October my husband and I were browsing through the store. When approached by the sales person we mentioned we were looking for an upgraded coffee maker. He showed us the Jura. My husband was immediately smitten. He had just received a small inheritance, and this is what he wanted to buy with it. At the register my..."

"I stopped by after work to return a couple items that I didn't end up needing and wanted to look at some molds to make Jello in. Something easy for my 5 year old to make with me. I was in my work clothes but I wasn't disheveled or homeless looking, I just got the sense that I was not welcomed. The cashier was unhelpful and it's not like there was a long line. She said the only molds they have in the store are for bundt cakes? Seriously? Had I ha..."
