"You can take a picture of my truck, but I am camera shy," Dominic Del Re told me as he turned away from my camera.
I am just glad he and his red mobile are still around.
Does anyone else think his prices are a bit high? I was so excited to get my scissors sharpened by him, but he charged me $15 which I think is outrageous.
The guy sharpened a couple of my knives about a year ago (and charged a pretty penny for it). A few months later, I brought them back, and he refused to work on them, telling me that whoever had sharpened them last had damaged the steel, and that further grinding would break them down too badly. I didn't have the heart to break the news.
4I saw him and his truck on Sunday and so wish I had been closer to home to get my knives and scissors sharpened!
