Knife Sharpening Workshop with Jhun of Kuya Sharpens

Date and Time: Sunday, July 12, 4 to 6 PM
Location: Home Ec + Best Bud

Join us for a hands-on knife sharpening workshop led by Jhun of Kuya Sharpens. Whether your favorite kitchen knife has become dull over time or you've always wanted to learn how sharpening works, this workshop will cover the fundamentals of sharpening and maintaining your knives using Japanese whetstones.

Jhun will guide participants through the sharpening process step by step, with plenty of time for practice and questions along the way. After sharpening, he'll lead a knife skills session so participants can put their newly sharpened edge to work.

Participants are encouraged to bring a kitchen knife from home to sharpen during class.

Each participant will leave with a whetstone and sharpening station setup to continue practicing at home.
