Knife Workshop

Wait...the class is tomorrow? Ugh, I'll try and call off work. Now I have to round up my flip flops, cut off T shirt, cargo shorts and a bad attitude in short order. I'll probably be a few hours late and I expect you all to wait. [emoji38]

I'm super excited! I have a cooler full of cold water and Gatorade for everyone. See you at 7:45.

...now how am I gonna keep this keg cold? [emoji848]

It should be a good day. The shop is somewhat clean, all supplies have arrived, hoping for a bit cooler weather.
 
Pictures are a must!! Weather looks good. Have fun!

I'm partial to the bottom one, it's actually very close to the one I'll be making this weekend.
 
I hate non-functional choils, so my vote is for the red one, too.
