Question:
Does the FOK Ultimate course teach us how to sharpen and maintain our knives at home?
— Robert Stepp
Answer:
It does, there's a nice section on it. It's great. Uh, using a stone, a wet stone is definitely the best way to be able to do that. Um, there are other methods like electric sharpeners and stuff like that too. I highly recommend keeping your knives as sharp as possible. In fact, I myself am guilty of having dull knives at the moment. And I keep saying I need to just set a day aside where I'm actually sharpening all of them. As you can guess, I, I have a lot of knives. Um, so, uh, it takes me a lot longer to be able to sharpen them all instead of just sharpening a couple. But keep 'em sharp, they'll keep you safe. Uh, the best knife is a sharp one is always what I say.
