Poona Knife Grinding Works

Poona Knife Grinding Works is tucked away at 261 Fatima Nagar, on the 6th Main in Navi Peth. We’re actually located at the Godbole Bunglo. It’s a bit of a different setup than your usual industrial unit because it’s in a more residential-feeling area. We’ve been doing this for a long time now. The sound of the grinding wheels is something you just get used to when you spend your days here. We have all sorts of blades and tools coming through our doors. It’s a messy business, to be honest. There are sparks and metal dust, so we have to be careful. We aren't a big factory or anything like that. It's more of a traditional workshop vibe. People bring us their stuff, we take a look, and we get to work. The Godbole Bunglo has its own character, and we've just sort of become part of it over the years. We don't have a website or anything fancy. People usually find us by word of mouth or by just seeing the sign outside. It’s simple work, but it takes a steady hand. Sometimes we sit outside for a break when it’s not too hot. We’ve known the people in Navi Peth for ages. It’s a quiet life for the most part, except for the noise of the machines. We just keep doing what we know how to do, one blade at a time, until the day is done.
