OUR STORY

The year was 2006 and the company I had worked for close to 8 years closed down and left my area leaving me at a crossroads- accept a job working for someone else again or become my own boss?  After a lot of research and ultimately a suggestion from my barber brother-in-law I set my sights on shear sharpening!

​

I then hopped a plane cross country to California with my beautiful wife, 4 year old daughter, and 1 year old daughter, bound for a shear sharpening training course.  (After the obligatory stop at Disneyland California) I took a one-on-one training course with a "shear genius," Jason Pintel.  I learned the nuances of shear sharpening and then had a resource for any questions or concerns I had in the years to come.

​

Perfect Edge Shear Sharpening was born in 2007 and have loved every minute of it!  Not that it has been smooth sailing right from the start-  what new business doesn't have some bumps along the way?!  Thankfully I had Jason, mentioned earlier- the "shear genius," as a resource.  I often went to him with oddities I encountered in sharpening or hiccups with my equipment.  I have learned so much along the way and many years later it feels as if there is not a shear I haven't sharpened or a problem I haven't seen and fixed successfully! 

​

With shear sharpening under my belt it has been fantastic building business relationships with Titans of the industry- Kasho, Above Shears, Feather, Scissor Mall, and others.  

​

Perfect Edge's goal is to provide the best professional shear sharpening service along with the highest quality professional salon shears to make your lives and businesses more productive!
