knife sharpening workshop with tim from dōguya
A sharp knife is an indispensable tool in the kitchen. Having a reliable sharp knife at hand will make cooking a lot more fun and easy, and food more delicious and pretty. Even the best knives will dull from the moment you put them to use. Maintenance is essential to keep your knife performing consistently.
