Been on holiday for the last two weeks and, as usual, brought a nice knife with me - my Blenheim Forge santoku.
A fortnight without a decent steel, in humidity, with other people washing up has really taken the edge off and discoloured the blade.
I am genuinely excited about giving it some attention when I get home.
Brillo pad with baking soda to clean the metal. Then rub it down with a Niwaki crean mate, before sharpening it back up to a razor's edge.
Alternatively, I might cycle over to Peckham and ask the makers to sort it out whilst I have a nosey around the forge.
Will be fun either way.
