  • I signed up for a knife sharpening course at bleinhem forge, in a couple of weekends time. Looking forward to it, as I'll have at least one knife that is actually sharp and useable. And the knowledge (if I take enough notes) to do it for the others that have sat unused these many months..
    I don't even begrudge the cost.

  • Enjoy the course. I found it to be a game-changer. But, if I'm honest, that didn't happen until some months after I took the course, and I'd watched a number of YouTube knife sharpening videos which elicited a 'Oh so that's what he was talking about on the course' moment.

  • as long as I've got notes to refer to, when I blunder along at home trying to sharpen the knives I didn't take with me to the course, I'll be happy. And I'd prefer to look at my own notes than keep stop starting youtube videos. They never give you enough angles on what they are actually doing, and it all goes by so quickly, I'm forever rewinding, looking to see exactly what they are doing..
    But good to know you got something out of it. I've got a few free days over christmas so I'll see if I can put the new knowledge to some sort of use then, so it doesn't just wander off to the edge of my brain..
