Why Waterstone Sharpening?
While modern sharpening systems and machines exist, freehand waterstone sharpening is often regarded as the gold standard in the culinary world. You will learn to sharpen knives using only Japanese waterstones and your own hands. More than just a practical skill, it's a therapeutic and meditative art form that is both empowering and deeply satisfying.

Our student success rate is very high. You will learn our techniques that are designed to cover a wide range of dexterity levels. Each student faces different difficulties and challenges, which we will address individually.
Testimonials
From our past students
Theory component of workshop was very informative with good powerpoint presentation, making it easy to understand different knife types, materials and sharpening techniques. Practical component was easy for me to get a grasp of with Nari's excellent instruction. Nari has a pleasing and friendly manner making you feel comfortable and providing a good environment for learning. 10/10

The class with Nari was amazing! I learnt so much theoretical and practical knowledge and can sharpen my knives now myself. Highly recommend the course for any chef or home cook. Also, Nari took the time to explain everything and got sure I understand it as well.

I’ve done Japanese knife sharpening classes before, but this was far better. The key thing is, it’s a small class. Mine only had two other people so you get a personalized attention. He goes into the theory and then you get hands on with Nari-sensei’s watching and guiding you. The whetstones were much better quality than my other class and you got much more time actually sharpening.
