My name is Oliver Bernal, and I am the proud owner of Edge Advantage. Our company specializes in offering top-notch mobile sharpening services for barbers, stylists, and animal groomers in North Idaho.
Before stepping into the entrepreneurial world, I honed my skills in the Navy as an aircraft structure and hydraulics mechanic. In a high-stakes environment like Naval Aviation, there's no room for error. I've learned to uphold a standard of operation that tolerates no compromise and demands meticulous attention to detail.
Thanks to my background, I possess an in-depth understanding of the processes and techniques necessary to consistently deliver precise and exceptional results. To achieve this, I've made substantial investments in training and state-of-the-art equipment.
For shear sharpening, I underwent rigorous training at Bonika Shears in Loganville, Georgia, obtaining certifications from Bonika Shears and the International Shear Sharpeners Association. My arsenal includes the cutting-edge Scimech Jr. flathone and the Ookami Gold shear sharpeners. These investments allow me to provide unparalleled services promptly, minimizing downtime for barbers, stylists, and groomers.
When it comes to clipper blade sharpening, I utilize a Shop Incorporated automated clipper sharpening machine that delivers consistent and precise results, preserving the life of blades at a fraction of the cost.
In the realm of cutlery and tool sharpening, I boast a diverse range of equipment. My 1"x30" belt grinder, equipped with a variety of belts, ensures stock removal, initial polishing, cleaning, and finishing to achieve the finest edges and an impeccable finish. Additionally, my Tormek T-8 water-cooled sharpening system delivers precise hollow grinds for a myriad of tools and knives.
I operate from a fully equipped vehicle, outfitted with all the tools required, a reliable power supply, and freshwater for cleaning, ensuring on-site services par excellence.
On top of providing exceptional services, I offer a selection of shears for sale, including premium Bonika Shears products, allowing my esteemed clients to explore available items while I service their shears.
At Edge Advantage, my ultimate objective is to forge enduring relationships with my clients, with their unwavering satisfaction at the forefront. In the rare event of an oversight or issue with our service, I am committed to swiftly rectifying the situation.
Our services are top-notch and guaranteed to perform! Please give us a chance to prove ourselves... once you do I'm confident you will be back!
