Our Mission

At Vii Dohtem – Cutting Edge, we restore tools with care and precision. Our low-speed, Swiss-engineered sharpening process protects the structure and strength of every edge, giving blades a longer life while reducing waste and overconsumption.

Sustainability at the Core

We believe in preserving what works. Every sharpened tool is one fewer item sent to landfill. Our reusable blade protectors, local print materials, and minimal-waste workflow reflect our commitment to sustainability without compromising performance.

Locally Rooted

From design to delivery, we partner with local suppliers and creatives throughout Wiltshire. Supporting our community and lowering our footprint are part of how we honour the tools we restore.

Why It Matters

Whether you're a seamstress or a chef, a barber or a skilled tradesperson, sharp tools make great work possible. We help you care for what you already have because great tools, like great skills, are worth keeping sharp.

A Sharpening Philosophy Rooted in Craft

Vii Dohtem – Cutting Edge was built on the belief that tools deserve care, not replacement. Behind every restored edge is a love for craft, a respect for materials, and a drive to keep things working beautifully.
