Work Sharp

Since 1973, family-owned Work Sharp, based in beautiful Ashland, Oregon, has been designing and engineering a full range of consumer sharpeners including the Work Sharp & Drill Doctor brands, which are designed and marketed with the intention of surprising and delighting our customers.

Work Sharp’s remarkable success and stability can, in part, be attributed to its culture and more particularly its coworkers. More than 25% of our coworkers have worked with us for 10 to 25 years.

Our core values are the central drivers of our business:

Love & Respect
Honesty & Integrity
Own Your Experience
Continuous Improvement
Simplify
Enjoy What We Do

Work Sharp offers competitive pay and all the great benefits you would expect, and some surprising benefits like a vacation bonus and sabbaticals.
