Gear
- Honing Steel - Keep your knife edge “true” between sharpenings.
- Avocado Tool - Never worry about avocado-handing yourself!
- Whetstone - This one is the same grit I use (400/1000). If you’re interested in D-I-Ying, this one also comes with an angle guide to help you achieve the correct angle for your blade!
- Hand Sharpener - This is the little guy I use
- Bench/Bowl Scrape - This one is simple plastic like we used in class.

Misc
- The Chef Show - This is the show I was talking about with Jon Favreau!
- Eco Minded Solutions (Landscaper) - These are the guys that helped us design and create our backyard. We experienced pros and cons with this crew, with a couple hiccups along the way, but by and large, we were happy with their work. If you need a smaller project done, we use Jose Paz (works for Eco Minded but does side jobs) and his small crew of guys. You can reach him at 760-877-0598, just let him know Carl Smith referred you or we would be happy to make an introduction.
- Knife Merchant - An interesting looking knife shop I found in your area that does sharpenings!
