Is it facing the coffeeshop? I remembered passing by there and saw before, but everytime it's closed and I stay in the east. Any idea whats the opening hours?
I've bought at least 4 types of sharpeners, dun really work. I might be using incorrectly but all 4 the same results.
Avoid the rollers lar.. those are not good.. whetstone is fine but you need practice first... but please get a range of grit.. minimally 2 grit like around #1000 for basic sharpening (not repair of edge hor), #3000 for basic polishing (remember basic polishing not for very fine.. those are even higher grit) if you feeling you want to polish further can get something like #6000 or #8000 the key is not to jump overly high grit..
If you want to get someone to sharpen and learn as well as get a set of stones.. you can visit the knife shop near Tiong Bahru area.... it is at Tan Boon Liat Building, just at 1st floor. I think the boss there or staff will teach you how to do it if you buy whetstones from them.
Bro his knives are expensive hor... that Pow Li auntie is jitao put to the grinding wheel to grind.. got sparks one.. got thick scratch mark across the whole blade leh.
When u get such fine whetstone? I've been to so many hardware or those market stalls , they usually carry 1-2 types of whetstone. Yes, those rollers I noticed really grind and wear out the steel faster and still not sharp enough
That knife shop at Tan Boon Liat Building lor.. they sell Japanese knives one... and the boss sharpen the knives himself.. usually... or else is his staff doing it.. but also trained by him lar..
Thanx! I always makan there but didn't realize got such a shop above. I thought it's all tailors and selling clothes and toiletries items
Not really so expensive, I've seen $300+ knives. Mine is just normal lesser than $300, always buy wanna pretend to be sushi chefs or MasterChefBro his knives are expensive hor... that Pow Li auntie is jitao put to the grinding wheel to grind.. got sparks one.. got thick scratch mark across the whole blade leh.
