I've sent in a Gerber LMF 2, Ka-Bar USMC, and Ontario Pilot's Knife for this service. The Ka-Bar in particular was really trashed, tip smashed / flattened, and the blade was rough. Ontario Pilots knife had a totally uneven grind on both sides. Vlad did incredible work on all of them and sent them back far superior then out of the factory. Do not hesitate to send your knife in for sharpening, the turn around is crazy quick, price is way less than it should be, and he is great at what he does!
