There are more dull knives out there than any sharpening service can handle — and that’s exactly why we launched our training classes.
In a world full of complexity and conflicting advice, we want to cut through the noise and share the practical, time-tested knowledge we’ve gained from years of sharpening. Our goal is simple: to empower you with the skills to keep your knives sharp whenever they need it.
At Mr. Sharp, we believe that real learning means walking away with confidence — and that’s what we promise. These training classes have been a long time in the making, and we’re proud to finally offer them to you. Whether you’re a home cook, a professional, or simply curious about the craft, now is the perfect time to invest in your skill and take sharpening into your own hands.
