Knife Sharpening

By the end of this two hour hands-on class you will be well on your way to expertly sharpening knives and tools of all sorts.   

We will cover all aspects of sharpening western and Japanese kitchen and outdoor knives, scissors, chisels, plane irons, leather knives, etc.  

Students should bring any knives or tools that they wish to learn to sharpen. We will focus on as many of them as time allows.

Each student will be provided the use of Japanese waterstones during the class to use.  

You will leave this class with all the skills you need to become a proficient sharpener!
