Precision Edge Sharpening has exciting news!
After twenty-three truly blessed years, I’m retiring!
DON’T PANIC!!!
Over the past few months, I’ve been working hard to find “just the right” person to take over the business I started from scratch, and love so much. I was looking for someone good-natured, easygoing, friendly, honest, and hardworking—with good eyesight and solid hand-eye coordination.
After a few false starts, the perfect guy was found.
Steven Tardanico and I have hammered out an agreement, and he will officially take over the reins of Precision Edge Sharpening on March 1st.
I’ve been training Steve for a while now, and he’s a natural. I’ll continue working with him one-on-one through March 1st, and I’ll also be providing an additional year of support—although, truth be told, he won’t need it.
Steve is much younger than I am, a family man, and quite frankly, with younger hands and better eyes, he’s already better than me.
I’ve worked very hard to make Precision Edge Sharpening the best sharpening service on the planet, and I know that tradition will continue under Steve’s care.
For those of you already on my schedule through March 1st, there’s a good chance you’ll get to meet him before I go. If not, just think of him as a taller version of me. You’ll receive the same service you’ve always had—if not better.
Many blessings to all of you who have supported me over the years. Some of you have been customers for decades, and I will miss you greatly. I have been truly blessed by every one of you.
Wishing you all continued success in this awesome industry,
Mark
