Professional Mobile Sharpeners Serving Manhattan, Westchester, the Boroughs, Nassau and Western Suffolk

Pro Chef is the top knife sharpening service in the United States, with 17 years of proven customer service. As an individual family-owned and operated branch, ProChef NY follows a unique and proven system. Every privately owned company that carries the name has received full training from Pro Chef. As a result, customers can feel secure that their knives will receive the best care possible due to adherence to the established business guidelines.

Dedicated to knife maintenance for the culinary arts and food service industry, we offer the best sharpening service and more. Our mobile truck allows us to come directly to the customer to provide fast and effective service for busy commercial and residential customers.

ProChef NY sharpens knives and offers for sale a range of new cutlery, small wares, and clothing kept on the truck for convenience. Every item we carry is on our mobile truck because it meets the needs and standards of professional cooks throughout our area.

Our sharpening services focus the expertise on kitchen knives, but we can rejuvenate mower blades and other yard tools, scissors, and more. We offer repair services for damaged blades, and customers can choose between our drop-off service or mail-in option.

Bobby Shields performs all the sharpening services completed on the truck and the knife repairs performed through our mail-in or drop-off services. The sharpening service is the best in the business. We do not grind blades to make them sharp but offer a genuine sharpening service. Our methods make it possible to regain to quality of the knife without any loss of weight or balance due to a constant whittling away of the steel.

Meredith Shields answers customer phone calls, responds to questions on social media, and adds the content seen on those pages. Customers who contact the company can know they are talking to someone who owns the business and who cares about the happiness of every customer. Both partners have extensive knowledge about the business and knife care and are happy to answer any questions.

Bobby and Meredith Shields also book private sharpening sessions for groups. Anyone who wishes to host a party can contact the company to schedule a date. Private parties allow hosts to gather friends, family, coworkers, and others who need knife sharpening. The host always receives their sharpening services for free on the day of the event. The company also offers on-location sharpening for clients with a high volume need for the service and occasionally works door-to-door.
