New Videos On Sharpening

Last night i set aside some time to shoot some videos.  Recently, there's been a lot of discussion about thinning... how to do it, when to do it, etc.  So, i shot a couple of videos on thinning (one lecture and one demonstration).  Here they are:

In addition, i decided to re-shoot my video on sharpening single bevel knives (cause the lighting sucked in my last one and because we now have a nice lecture to go along with it).  Here is the new single bevel knife video:

and the lecture to go with it:

And, lastly, for the sake of making peoples lives easier, we've updated our sharpening playlist to include these new videos.  You can see our sharpening playlist here:

July 3rd Japanese Craftsmen Event at JKI

So, on July 3rd (in the evening after the store closes... around 6:30pm or so), we will have a couple craftsmen visiting the store from Japan. We will be discussing sharpening, having a sharpening demo, doing knife sharpening, and talking about all things knives (with translation of course). As our store is tiny, space will be limited (sorry).

If you're interested in attending, please e-mail me at Jon@JapaneseKnifeImports.com or call at 310-399-0300.

Again, space is limited and this is an RSVP ONLY event.

More Information upon RSVP.
