Tool Repair
Knife and Tool Tip Repair in Portland
The tip is the most fragile part of any blade. Pry open a can, drop the knife point-down, or catch it in a drawer, and the tip snaps right off. A broken tip makes a knife hard to use for fine work. Knife and tool tip repair in Portland rebuilds that point so the blade works like it should again.
Broken Tip → Repaired
A snapped-off tip, broken past the point.
Reshaped by hand into a clean, working point.
Rebuilding a Broken Point
We reshape the blade by hand to form a new, clean tip. The knife ends up a hair shorter, but it gets back a usable, sharp point for detail work, piercing, and tip cuts. We keep the lines of the blade looking right, so the repair blends in instead of standing out. The same work fixes broken tips on tools and other pointed blades, not just kitchen knives.
What Tip Repair Costs
Tip repair starts at $5 and goes up to about $20, depending on how much of the tip is gone and how much reshaping it takes. Drop the knife off for a free look and a price first. If the edge is chipped along the blade too, our edge chip repair handles that.
