Yarri Ganna sharpened and tested under supervision. Going to need to buy some new stones, but the technique is as described. Flat stone to sharpen the back and slipstones for the sides. Also need to make a new handle as consensus of opinion was that the handle supplied is a little on the short side.

All in, a good week. Interesting to compare German and French carpentry techniques and also the German and French apprenticeship system. Both are similar but different.

The Swede's were all particularly happy and it looks like the next Kesurokai will be in Sweden in 2021!

Sorry we didn't meet up Don. It appears that you were called away shortly before I arrived. Hope you missed out on the stomach bug that totaled a number of people in the second week.
