I know this was discussed recently, and since there seemed to be quite a 
bit of interest, how about someone who does know how to sharpen knives 
give the rest of us a demo one night?

I'm not sure a pub would be too happy with a bunch of knife-wielding 
people dressed in black descending upon them, but maybe it would be a 
good opportunity to visit Bermondsey[1]

We could call it a Free Knife-In(tm), or perhaps something less suggestive.

I have been longing to go buy a new knife, so would be more than happy 
to bring my current one (which really needs all the nicks taken out of 
it) and possibly destroy it practising.

[1] Well, Kake suggested it when we went out for a meal.
