A great product and good customer service/delivery

Jende Industries is currently an international company with facilities in the US, Australia, Malaysia, and Taiwan. Ironically, we had no intentions of becoming a sharpening-based company. But as fate would have it, in 1999 we started sharpening (poorly) and fell into the rabbit hole - deeply. Fast forward after several years of trial and a whole lot of error, and Jende Industries was started in 2004 with a single product - the Jende Reed Knife. The name and the knife quickly became associated with sharpness and quality in the world of oboe, bassoon, and clarinet. From there we branched out into different realms of sharpeningdom, including kitchen knives, woodworking, scissors, and straight razors; and despite getting kicked off all the hip forums and discussion lists of the day, started becoming known as a respectable source of sharpening knowledge and equipment.

Jende has a great selection and reasonable prices. If you are into knife sharpening then Jende is the place to go.

I was shopping for a good reed knife and came accross Jende. Chris Tayler was out of town, in Taiwan actually, but still took the time to discuss the appropriate knife and give me an overview of the company. Chris represented the company with such professionalism that I’ll never go anywhere else and I’ll never forget the level of care I received from him. Also, I’ve had the knife for quite some time now and I absolutely love it. I still haven’t had to sharpen it!

Thank you, it is very off character of Chris Taylor. he is the resident jerk for the company, if you need to be insulted or just bashed Chris is our guy! We are glad you had an awesome experience, we will be sure to beat Chris severely for this misstep of his. :)

Tom is a sharpening wizard. His knowledge of his products and the art of sharpening is second to none. It’s amazing how he manages to ship from Taiwan and have things arrive stateside quicker than any of his competors I’ve tried who are actually in the states.

Well if by Wizard you mean how your $300 knife and Tom disappear as soon as you hand it to him then yes he is a wizard, it is truly magical!

I was never able to sharpen this knife to my standards - it didn’t seem sharp when I got it and didn’t seem sharp after I paid the dealer I bought it from to sharpen it. I found a friend who was a Jende fan and gave it to him.

The issue is with some people who are not able to sharpen correctly, then this is a common problem. Those who are die-hard fans love it because of the steel we use and the hardening process we do gives a lasting edge, if sharpened correctly, that will outlast any of the competition out there.
