Knife skills are an essential when it comes to cooking, in this class you will be working with our Flint and Flame knives to understand and learn the safety, sharpening and correct knives for the job, whilst becoming a more confident cook in the kitchen. With and mixture of demonstrations and hands on techniques such as filleting and skinning a flat fish and breaking down a chicken, you are guaranteed to go home with a head full of knowledge and the confidence of making the knife and extension of your arm
