Hello Portland Rewilders!
We would love to invite you to Rewild Portland’s “Rewild Skillshare”, our afternoon social networking event where people make new friends and hang out with friends and family while sharing skills, ideas and strategies for creating new cultures based on humanities ancestral heritage. We welcome all levels of experience.
What:
This month’s theme is knife-sharpening! Nobody likes a dull knife. Yet, we often neglect to maintain our edges. We’ve set this time aside to focus on getting our tools in tip top shape for when the cold starts to fade and we head back out into the wilds. No matter what your level of experience or knowledge of tool-sharpening is, from novice to master, you are welcome to come learn and share what you know.
Where:
We’ve moved indoors for the winter months and will be spending our fun crafting time inside a cozy coffee shop called:
The Waypost
3120 N. Williams Ave
Portland, Oregon 97227
When:
Saturday, January 26th
From 3pm-5pm
Materials to bring (we will have extra):
• Knives (or any steel tools with an edge)
• Sharpening Stones and sticks (whatever set-up you use to sharpen your knives)
• Oil/Water (If your sharpening stone/steel knife requires it!)
• Leather Strop (belt)
Here are some brief links to study up before you come:
• http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knife_sharpening
• http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l418aybyAs (He has a whole series that is amazing)
Other stuff to bring is your family & friends and a $5-10 sliding scale suggested donation to support our efforts. Remember: “dress to impress”. This is a social event after all! Also, we are guests at the Waypost, so behave yourselves and remember to make sure you order some hot tea or coffee. They also have great brunch options and specialize in potpies.
See you there!
