<What you will learn>
Learn the basics of knife sharpening
<You will be able to do this>
You will be able to sharpen single-edged and double-edged knives by yourself.
This is how I teach it:
We teach carefully in small groups of 6 people or less. First, we explain how to sharpen the knife, and then each person sharpens their own knife. Instead of the instructor giving a one-sided explanation, we have participants talk with each other,
You can learn freely and enjoyably.

What were the good points and points that satisfied you?
The Q&A session went smoothly and the number of attendees was just right.
With careful explanations and practical instruction, I was able to make progress in my own knife sharpening.
The demonstration was easy to follow and the teacher explained everything in a clear and detailed manner.
The sharpening tips were given by an expert, and since the class was small, I was able to learn a lot of things carefully and it was easy to understand. I was self-taught, so there were many things I didn't know, and it was an eye-opener. Thank you very much.
Practical training, explanations by instructors, small group prices. Questions were answered in detail. Other knives were also sharpened.
The explanations were clear and the teacher taught us carefully, so we were able to understand the basics. Since the class size was small, the teacher was always watching over us.
Because I received face-to-face instruction and the teacher explained things clearly and carefully.
I learned how to properly sharpen knives, I became more capable and more confident, and I learned about whetstones.
Each person was given careful instruction.
I had a fun time learning knife techniques. The instructor taught us from the basics, and took turns teaching us one by one, answering our questions as he explained things to us. He gave us detailed explanations and answered our questions precisely.
We received instruction tailored to each individual knife.
I was given a detailed explanation.
The results are good and I am satisfied.
Even though I was a beginner, they noticed my questions and gave me clear answers, which made it easy for me to understand.
