Event

Sharpening Kitchen and Field Cutlery with Blacksmith Grant Marcoux of Pilgrim Soul Forge
Prepare for the holidays by learning how to sharpen your knives!  In this hands-on class you will learn about knife types, edge geometry and how to hone, steel and strop your knife edges for top performance. Bring your own knives and sharpening stone (or borrow one at the class) and Grant will then assist you as you sharpen your blades to perfection. Introduction of the use of the sharpening steel and strop is also included. This class will make your holiday cooking more enjoyable. It is recommended that you purchase a sharpening stone system for future use.
