Sharpening Expertise Since 1927

At Rentaknife, sharp, high-quality knives are at the core of what we do—built on the expertise of Fausto Damast™, a renowned sharpening service known for craftsmanship and quality since 1927.

The story of Fausto Damast™ began in the heart of Alkmaar, the Netherlands, when Walter Faust established a fine steelware shop and sharpening workshop. What started as a local service quickly became a trusted name in professional knife sharpening. Now, nearly a century later, the fourth generation continues this tradition, serving customers across the Netherlands.

From Sharpening to Innovation

With nearly 100 years of experience, Fausto Damast™ remains at the forefront of the industry. In 2021, a new milestone was reached with the launch of Rentaknife—a premium Japanese knife rental service. This service was born out of a simple goal: to provide customers with razor-sharp knives at all times, even while their own knives are being sharpened. With Rentaknife, you get uncompromised quality, always ready for use.

The Quality of Fausto Damast™

At Rentaknife, we rely on the expertise of Fausto Damast™. Each knife is sharpened with the precision and care that has defined this family business for generations. The knives we rent are selected with the same dedication to quality that Fausto Damast™ is known for.

• Exceptional sharpness, ideal for precise cutting techniques.
• Superior durability, built for intensive use.
