Tom was well informed and excellent at sharing his extensive knowledge. Clear instructions and demonstration. A very likeable guy who clearly enjoys his work. We left with very sharp knives!
One-on-one Knife Sharpening Tuition - COAL DROPS YARD
Tax included.
We are happy to teach you the basics of sharpening knives on whetstones, provide you with guidance and let you have a go. Buy a session for yourself, or as a present for any foodie or chef. Lessons take place at COAL DROPS YARD.
Lessons are roughly 75 minutes (our knife sharpeners are very passionate about the subject and like to talk, so this can go on if you are particularly interested!). We like the lessons to be as hands on as possible, so please bring some of your own knives (and any stones you want to use). Don't worry if you don't have anything suitable - we will provide all the knives and stones you need. Feel free to book if you have the basics under your belt and want to hone your technique as we can adapt the content to whatever you want to cover.
Participants receive 10% off on any sharpening equipment or knives purchased after the lesson.
The calendar is updated on a monthly basis, with the schedule for the next month being released in the 3rd week of every month. If you cannot find a suitable slot, please wait for the next batch of dates.

I am giving the store and its owners 5 Stars!! Exceptional people, service and product!!!! Own several stellar knives from master blacksmith from Kitchen Provisions. Looking forward to our private sharpening experience 15 September during our visit to London. Support your local independents. ❤️
I had been sharpening my knives with the knowledge acquired from YouTube videos for about a year prior to taking the course. I had been getting a OK result, but felt that it could be better. That’s why I booked a One-on-One knife sharpening session with Kitchen Provisions and I absolutely loved it! Federica filled in all the blanks in my knowledge, explained what to pay attention to in the process and taught me everything one needs to know in order to achieve a razor sharp knife! Also loved the fact that the One-on-One session starts before the shop opening so you can learn in peace and quiet with no interruptions! Would absolutely recommend to all sharp knife enthusiasts!!
Frederica was excellent. Knowledgeable, attentive and very helpful, I'd recommend this course to anyone interested not just in knife sharpening but learning more about their knives in general.
Really grateful for the lesson and experience. Federica @ Coal Drops Yard was so knowledgeable and a brilliant teacher. I feel confident to look after not only my new Japanese chefs knife, but also all my other knives. Thank you Federica!! Absolutely recommend Kitchen Provisions.
Love KP anyway, however the time I spent with Jun for my lesson was exceptional value. Delivers such a depth of knowledge and expertise, while also being able to deliver it in a smooth and easy to understand manner. An exceptional member of staff.
Great morning, 2 young lads who work with me learnt a lot. Jun is very knowledgable and friendly
Expertise fabulous when it comes to all things Japanese knives! Knife sharpening course for a Christmas present to hubby and 3 mates was a huge success! Would thoroughly recommend
Fantastic knife sharpening course - very informative and helpful. Highly recommended!
I very much enjoyed my knife sharpening course on 15 November and learned a lot. All credit to Jun for his enthusiasm for all things knives and his easy ability to share his knowledge. Thank you.
Fantastic course. Jung was a very knowledgable and patient instructor. I came away much more confident in being able to sharpen my knives. Highly recommended.
We found the workshop very informative. Jun clearly knows his stuff. We both felt really confident to continue sharpening at home afterwards.
