Greg Thibodeaux, owner of NB Knife Sharpening in New Braunfels, TX

Precision in the Workshop. Speed on the Road.

I’m Greg—a New Braunfels local, a one-man operation, and likely the only person in town who treats a paring knife with the same mathematical rigor as a structural CNC inlay.

When I’m not at my bench, I’m usually wearing one of my other hats: active board member and CNC instructor at 10BitWorks Makerspace, or ‘Mr. Mom’ for my 15-year-old step-daughter. Between chauffeuring her around town and supporting my wife, Caitlin, I spend my ‘free’ time obsessed with the thousandths of an inch—whether I’m surfacing a 115-inch slab table or building DIY Hi-fi speakers and amplifiers from scratch.

I brought that same obsession with ‘getting the edge right’ to NB Knife Sharpening. There are no warehouses here and no mystery technicians. It’s just me, my professional equipment, and a genuine refusal to let a dull blade leave my shop.

How It Works

Book & Wrap

Schedule your sharpening online. Roll your blades in a kitchen towel (the “steel burrito”), tuck them in a box, or just hand over the whole block.

The Hand-off

I offer free pickup and delivery in New Braunfels. Leave them on the porch for a contactless swap, or let me know if you’d rather meet in person—I’m always happy to meet my clients.

The Work

Your knives hit the bench for a multi-stage sharpening, honing, and polishing process. No “fast food” pull-through gizmos allowed.

The Return

Dropped back at your door, scary-sharp. You go back to dicing onions with zero effort and a lot more joy.

Common Questions

Is my knife too far gone to save?
Unless you’ve been using it to pry open manhole covers, probably not. We can fix chips, broken tips, and years of neglect.
How long does it take? I have onions to dice.
Standard turnaround is same-day—usually within 2 hours. Since I offer free pickup and delivery in New Braunfels, you don’t even have to put on shoes.
What’s the difference between “Professional Sharpening” and my pull-through gizmo?
Pull-through sharpeners are the “fast food” of the blade world—they get the job done but eat away your steel. We use a precise, multi-stage process that respects the metal and lasts much longer.
Do I need to wrap my knives in anything special?
A simple kitchen towel roll-up (the “steel burrito”) works perfectly, but a box or the original knife block is fine too. Just please don’t hand me a loose pile of unsheathed blades; I like my fingers.
Can you sharpen my [specific tool]?
If it’s on the “No-Go” list (hair shears, carpentry tools, etc.), sadly no. For anything else, call or shoot me a text at 830-708-2606 and I’ll give you a straight answer.
