Testimonials

We consider FS an extension of our company. When we need something, they make it happen. And it's done right.

Aaron Jud

We ship our tools across 4 states and into a different country to have FS sharpen our tools. It's hard to explain just how good they are.

Jack Michelle

Our business is based on quality products. Working with FS, my production team has a partner they can rely on.

Marcus Aisley

They're like family. We don't give our tooling or sharpening a second thought. They keep us ahead of the curve with the best tools.

Mark cacioppo

I had problems. They asked questions then came, educated and trained us, and solved everything. It's not about price, it's about service.

Alex Chan

Sharpening

What makes us unique is that we sharpen with the same Robotic CNC Grinding Centers that made your tools.

Re-Manufactured. Sharpened to new.

Reforming an application specific geometry on unique carbide grades is challenging, which is why we use the same grinding centers as we did to initally produce the tool. This difference is how we deliver on our commitment to provide exceptional performance throughout the cutting tool's life-cycle.

Full Service. More than an edge.

Balancing, tensioning, and seating, all play a role in the performance cutting tool. When we take in a cutting tool for service, we understand your expectation is to receive back something better. Sharpening alone will not produce the performance you need, the act of cutting is the combination of many forces that begin where the tool connects to your machine. Tools fully serviced by us receive a cleaning, sharpening and inspection to ensure what you get back carries the same commitment found in our new tools.
