Master sharpener Ayanori Suzuki will be teaching traditional Japanese sharpening techniques in this unique class, which will be held in English at our Poblenou workshop. Here you will learn everything you need to know on transforming your dull knife into a perfect cutting tool. From rough grinding and thinning to sharpening and polishing.

Ayanori is a veteran Japanese professional sharpener who has been working in Sweden for the past 8 years, teaching his craft and sharpening for top restaurants, accomplished chefs and savvy home cooks in his own Stockholm knife shop.

Important, The 2 hour long evening workshop will be held at the FKK showroom on Calle Ramon Turro 156. Participants are asked to bring their own knives, one 18 to 24cm chef's knife and one 8-12cm paring knife (Both flat/straight edged). Participants will also get a considerable discount on the stones they use in the class depending on availability and in case the class fills up fast we will open more in the following days.

Come and make your own knife with our founder Tomer Botner here at Florentine Kitchen Knives in Barcelona! Tomer will host a privet 2-day workshop on demand for 2 people only. Plus, after your knife is done you will sharpen it using traditional Japanese whetstone sharpening techniques taught to you by master sharpener Ayanori Suzuki of The Sharpening Shop!

For these workshops you will have a choice of blades from a few different options. You will also be able to pick your own handle makeups and will of course grind, finish, assemble, shape, polish, hand sharpen and engrave your new knives. 

The workshop is designed for complete beginners with no prior knowledge needed, however, more experienced makers are very welcome and are sure to pick up some new tricks. The workshop is structured so that the participants will spend around 4 hours working on each of the 2 days, plus the 2h sharpening class. A Spanish style Breakfast will also be provided on both days.
