Learn the basics on how to assess, repair, sharpen, and maintain your own double bevel knives using Japanese whetstones.

In this class you will get your hands dirty using the same high-quality imported Japanese whetstones we use in our shop, to learn the fundamentals of whetstone sharpening so you can start maintaining your standard double bevel knives at home. Together we will explore how to assess the condition of a knife, how to best service an array of issues, the basic sharpening motions to get a dead-dull edge all the way to a sharp working edge, as well as general knife sharpening background information to help give a well-rounded foundation to the subject.
