Knife Stores in Kennewick, Washington

"Phil was amazing!! He was able to resurrect our kitchen knives which had become very dull through use over the years so that they were like new. His prices are extremely reasonable and will save you hundreds of dollars from having to replace with new knives. He doesn’t only sharpen knives, however, but also sharpened our hair scissors and our dog scissors. He is extremely knowledgeable and a very honest, hard-working individual. Phil is a bus..."

"I brought 4 very dull knives to Van Lanen Sharpening Services and couldn't be happier with the knives when they were ready. The price was right and the service was spot on. I brought them home, and each had been wrapped like a gift in butcher paper with a seal sticker warning "extremely sharp" along with plastic tip protectors on them to ensure my safety durring transport! Very classy! They indeed are extremely sharp. I know where I'll be taking ..."

"Phil was very kind and professional! He is very knowledgeable about his craft and was able to help me know how to take care of my things properly so they last longer. He was quick and efficient. My blades and shears had been damaged by a previous sharpening, almost beyond repair. Phil took his time and tons of EXTRA time to fix them and make them usable again. I will be using his services from now on! I am extremely pleased with my experience and..."

"My husband took to Phil "Buck" Van Lanen some grooming shears my daughter bought when she was just starting out. They were the cheapest, lowest-quality shears money could buy at the time. Phil worked on her shears and when we returned them to my daughter, she was astounded and could not stop laughing. She kept exclaiming, "They work better now than when they were brand new!" In my opinion, if you have a blade you care about - if you want it in ab..."

"As a disclaimer I have absolute basic knowledge of larp gear. Despite that I not only felt extremely welcomed but I got tons of advice and recommendations on what I should look into. Left with the things I needed and even things I learned I was gonna need but never thought about."

"I absolutely love this store. My husband and I come at least once a month. There are so many cool things to find here. They have some amazing 3D printed items including dice towers. There are clothing options that could easily be worn at a Ren fair, for cosplay, larping, or just because you want to. They have the most beautiful hand made shalls. There is artwork for sale everywhere. My favorite is the crazy selection of jewelry and stickers. My f..."

"EDIT: We were able to go in when it opened at 11! They have SO MUCH COOL STUFF! From pins to dnd stuff to leaping stuff. The entire place is super cool! When we visit again it is going to be our go to place! I loved seeing everything! The owner was awesome and chatted with us for a while. He told us about a bunch of cool stuff that happens in the area every year and was just generally really nice! DEF HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! Also I saw the reply on..."

"Very quaint little place. A nice spread of options throughout the building from stickers, shawls (I think they were shawls?), lots of incense and candles too. Ton of cosplay stuffs for those who larp or attend conventions. (from what I understand, same store area but the cosplay items are a different business). Very friendly worker despite it being end of the day. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality of product seems great and it is sup..."

"Our knives weren't even this sharp when they were new! Bought my wife a nice Japanese butcher knife for Christmas and 6 months later it was starting to get a little dull. Rather than investing in an expensive sharpening system and still taking the chance of ruining her expensive knife, I took it to Bill. He was super responsive, excellent turnaround time and his rates are very reasonable. Now every knife in the kitchen is razor sharp and we could..."

"Bill is very knowledgeable and efficient at sharpening knives. His prices are reasonable. I had 6 knives sharpened in less than 24hours. I will be using him for any sharpening needs in the future. I highly recommend using this company."

"Bill has been my sharpener since about 2017/18 and he has always taken EXCELLENT care of my tools. As a dog groomer, maintaining tools is a huge part of giving my clients top quality service and I wouldn’t be able to do it without the help of Bill to keep my stuff top notch! He’s fast, efficient and all around a sweet guy! I wouldn’t dream of going anywhere else 🩷"

"Bill took on my job on a Friday afternoon and said he could sharpen them immediately. We took that time to go explore the Kennewick indoor market. Bill texted after about 35 minutes that he was done. Lovely fellow, good pricing. I have a few more items to take later. Bonus, he has a very sweet golden retriever."
