Crosby HarbisonJune 30, 2015They did a great job with my German knife. It came back sharper than when I got it from the factory and sharp enough to shave with. They even asked which hand I used.UpvoteDownvote- Terry S.December 23, 2013Wonderful attentive staff. Great store for profsssional & hand forged knives, tea sets, Japanese cookware.

"West Elm is my go-to store for terrarium and plant containers (and inspiration). Although their succulent selection is robust, it's often poor quality. They sell nice air plants and pots."
