Great class with small number. Tom is a good teacher. Hope I remember it all when I buy the whetstones. Got to wait a few weeks for new delivery.
Such a good session. Jun was an excellent teacher and gave a good grounding in the fundamentals around knife sharpening. Looking forward to improving the sharpness of my kitchen knife set.
Jun was knowledgeable, supportive, and clear. Honestly an outstanding workshop.
Excellent teacher and what he taught still worked when I tried it at home. Now have lovely sharp knives!
There are things a YouTube video can’t show you - like pressure, and how the right kind of burr feels under finger tip. The evening’s instruction was focussed, patient and practical. The 90mins flew by but I’ll be using the new knife skills I picked up for a long time to come. Thank you.
Really great class, would highly recommend.
Very good workshop, detailed information and personal attention.
Jun was a great tutor..: very thorough and engaging … feel I have acquired a new life skill!!
Very professional and helpful sharpening class,absolutely recommend it for anyone.
So useful and really good fun! Jun was a calm and relaxed instructor with great attention to detail. He has impressive and extensive knowledge of all things knives and gave us loads of tailored advice for sharpening and maintaining our knives. Have recommended the course to all our friends and coworkers! Johanna & James
Great class for someone new to sharpening with whetstones. Far better than online tutorials! Would highly recommend
Very well-explained and delivered class of just the right length and of great practical benefit.
Jun was a class act, knowledgeable and explained the concepts in great detail while keeping it simple.
Really instructive! Great way to get confidence in using a wet stone
Really useful, Jun was both engaging and provided brilliant input and guidance
A truly enlightening experience that I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone curious about kitchen knives and why they go blunt. It was so enthralled and focused on practising I was amazed how fast the 90 minutes flew by. While it might seem a rather dry subject, it proved really good fun. By the end of the session I grasped the key basics of why, what and how to get your knives back to their best.
After years of online tutorials, the guys at KP finally taught me the how and the why on getting my knives properly sharpened. My tomatoes no longer feel pain when I shred them to very very slim pieces. Couldn't be happier with the results!
I came to the session as a total novice. Malin, or teacher, was friendly and knowledgeable. I came to the course as a total novice but didn't feel out of my depth. The course is very hands on and you get the opportunity to sharpen one of your own knives if you bring it along. Also although Malin explained what equipment was needed to be able to sharpen your knives at home there was no 'hard sell' to get you to buy products from the store. Overall an excellent training course I would thoroughly recommend for anyone enthusiastic cook who wants to work with a sharp knife.
Really great class, very informative, good atmosphere, great instructor. Recommended to anyone!
Jun was a great teacher - very clear, answered all of our questions and was very helpful with instructing me on what knife was best for me to buy for commercial tough vegetable work. I would highly recommend Jun's course to both professionals and home cooks where you'll learn more about your knives than 'they just cut things'
My partner and I did this class as a date night and it was absolutely lovely. Federica is delightful, patient, and incredibly helpful. I have some experience sharpening, but it was great to get a refresh and have someone hands on to help me understand what I should be looking for. My partner had never used a whetstone and (with guidance) was able to pick it up and do a really great job on the sharpening. Definitely bring your own and you'll go home with a freshly sharepened knife.
Great class and well run by fredrika. Loved it
Federica was so lovely and a great teacher, we had lots of time to practice and get our hand in, just looking forward to practicing some more at home.
Great lesson, learnt so much in such a short space of time and now more confident sharpening my knives at home
Fantastic class with a lot of useful information - really enjoyed it
Really enjoyed the knife sharpening training session with Jun in Borough Yards store. Small class size of 4. Jun was knowledgeable and provided detailed theory to explain the sharpening process. Following the session Jun supported us in picking up a knife from the store and a whetstone with complimentary 10% discount. I immediately went home and sharpened some of my old knives. Delighted with the experience, 10/10 would recommend.
This class was great, informative, and fun. I learned a ton and feel confident that I can now sharpen my knives. Would definitely recommend it.
A great class where to learn (FOR REAL) how to sharp your knife. The Kitchen Provisions staff is very prepared, VERY PREPARED, and ready to answer any questions regarding the topic, my advice: better to get there with a list of specific questions that you want to ask. After watching countless of videos on the Tube about sharpening this class was exactly what I need to erase the unnecessary, learn the right techniques and understand how approach any knife. Highly recommended.
The class was very laid back but informative. The people teaching it were lovely and patient. If you're having difficulty learning to sharpen knives then take this course.
I loved it. it was really insightful and entertaining.
I attended the knife sharpening class. The guys were pros and were able to piece together the theory of knife sharpening with a hands on learning experience. I highly recommend the class to anyone looking to develop a solid base in the fundamentals of knife sharpening.
Thanks folks real nice
It was great, but it would have been good to have a takeaway with reminders of the key points of the training.
Haven’t been to the class yet so no idea how good it is
