Want to learn how to properly sharpen your knives yourself?
Twice a month you can learn all about sharpening your knives with us. Our course is suitable for everyone, whether you cook for a hobby or have been a professional chef for years.
After this course, sharpening will no longer be a secret.
The course is taught in an informal way. No excessive difficult words but everything in understandable language. In short, we will make it a pleasant evening. So sign up with your friend, group or alone.
You are guaranteed to be able to sharpen and maintain your knives properly after this evening.
Who we are.
For over 40 years Meesterslijpers has been known as one of the best sharpeners in the Netherlands. This evening we will share our years of experience with you in an easy to understand way. The course will be taught by Master Sharpener Berend de Boer and knife specialist Rutger Jansen.
What will you learn?
All about the different types of steel.
You've probably seen them, knives costing hundreds of euros. Ok, they are beautiful but why are they so expensive? The main difference is in the different types of steel. We will teach you what the advantages and disadvantages are, how best to sharpen and set them.
For the experts: you will learn how to properly sharpen VG10, SG-2, VG-1, Molybdenum Vanadium Steel. Finding the right angle will also not be a guesswork from now on.
Sharpening knives
We are going to teach you how to sharpen a knife from blunt to razor sharp. We've already made some knives extra dull so you can experience for yourself how to make a dull knife razor sharp again.
You learn best by doing it yourself so you will also learn to sharpen on the different types of sharpening stones (including ceramic and natural stones) and the different types of coarseness. Every knife needs to be sharpened differently and after this evening you will know exactly how.
Bonus: testing out the most beautiful knives
After this evening, you are guaranteed to be able to sharpen your own knives. But of course it would be a shame if all those beautiful knives could not be tested.
We thought so too and so we have knives from the finest brands on display. Among others, you can cut with knives from: Kazoku, Miyabi, Shibata Kotetsu,Suncraft, Takamura, Ryusen, Kai, Misono and more.
We love seeing the reaction when cutting with these knives. Every month we add a few more knives so you can choose from dozens of models.
Special Offers
All students will have the opportunity on the evening itself to purchase knives, cutting board and sharpening supplies at special prices. These unique prices are valid for this evening only. Are you interested in a particular product? Let us know and we will take it away for a special price that evening.
We hope you got excited and look forward to seeing you at the sharpening course. We are guaranteed to make it an educational and fun evening.
