Kitchen Knife Skills 102 

Stay Sharp, without Learning to Sharpen

The 45-minute class that makes your knives work better, longer—and with zero sharpening stones required. Kitchen knife maintenance for everyone.

Class Overview:

Most people think they need to sharpen their knives all the time.
The truth? You probably just need to learn how to care for the edge that’s already there.

8 Students, for 50 minutes + shopping after class. 

In this fast, friendly Saturday session, you’ll learn how to keep your knives feeling sharp with tools you’ll actually use—like honing rods, leather strops, and our Vivront-designed Edge Keeper. No stones. No stress. Just sharper knives every day.

What You’ll Learn:

• What makes a knife go dull (and how to avoid it)
• Why honing is not sharpening—but also important
• How to use a honing rod and/or strop without fear or guesswork
• At least one edge-check trick you can use at home
• How to build a low-effort, high-impact knife care routine

You’ll leave knowing what to do to make your sharp edges last way longer—whether you’re using a $40 chef’s knife or a $400 Japanese gyuto.

Try Our Tools—Find Your Match:

Use our in-shop collection of ceramic hones, leather strops, and Vivront favorites. Compare them side-by-side. Ask questions. Find your perfect fit.
Love it? Take it home. All class tools will be available for purchase—with an in-class exclusive discount.

Bonus:

Bring a knife with you—we’ll check its edge and show you how to bring it back to life if it's not too far gone. 

Who This Is For:

• Anyone who cooks, but hates dull knives
• Home chefs who’ve never touched a honing rod
  
• Anyone curious about keeping knives sharp without making a project out of it
