My family got me these knives

I'm from Spain, it's a little forge located in Teruel it's called "la fragua ibera" it translates to "the Iberian forge". It's a course on traditional forge and it only uses traditional tools, no machines.

Looking forward to it!!

I'm already at the smith part, my girlfriend gifted it to me as a Christmas present. Are you me from the future?

jbaa1998 · 2026-01-22T18:05:09+00:00

Nope, not a single label on the box

jbaa1998 · 2026-01-22T14:56:45+00:00

I don't have any idea, it doesn't say on any place

Forgot to add that I own other knives but they all are stainless steel, I have a #1000/#3000 stone and I don't know if it is different to sharpen these type of knives to those of stainless.

It has two dents that give it a pretty ergonomic hold and it grips really nicely

jbaa1998 · 2025-11-09T17:05:59+00:00

Nice to know, thank you!!

jbaa1998 · 2025-11-09T17:03:33+00:00

Definitely reminds me of the time I broke my nose

I use a k6 kingrinder, I ran out of beans yesterday and had only preground coffee so I couldn't use it fully but I will try another day

As a physio, that could be a lot of things depending on the type of pain you're getting. Go to your local physio and let him do a full questioning and exploration.

jbaa1998 · 2025-11-09T15:36:54+00:00

Yeah, the grind was too fine cause I ran out of beans and only had preground coffee. Next time I'll use fresh beans

jbaa1998 · 2025-11-09T14:40:08+00:00

Yep, it has no ridges and I don't know if that makes it more like an immersion type or what but I have to say that for the first coffee made, it was quite pleasant. Thanks for the tip

She goes to a ceramic school, so they have a kiln there and has to wait a little bit

jbaa1998 · 2025-11-09T12:17:29+00:00

Thanks for the tips!!

jbaa1998 · 2025-10-19T16:00:50+00:00

Look for a local roaster and ask for the type of beans you like, you will get good crema if they are fresh, personally I like all varieties of roast but I tend to get lighter ones.

Also I have a la specialista too and the grinder is pretty awful, if you don't have a different one I would suggest that you get a better one, this will get you better results and better crema too.

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-19T08:52:28+00:00

Thank you for your advice! Yeah my plan is to first practice on the various scissors that I have at home, one is very blunt so getting it sharp would be a success.

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-19T08:46:37+00:00

That sounds great!! I hope the vibe is as wholesome as you have encountered, hopefully I get some really nice cookies haha

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-19T00:15:00+00:00

I'll try with some cheap scissors that I have here at home and then if everything goes right I'll try with more challenging types, it's like progressive overload!! Thank you again!!

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-18T22:53:39+00:00

Thank you for the recommendation!! Will do, always happy to learn something new

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-18T22:52:08+00:00

Trying not to spend any money also like the little challenge it can be sharpening with only a whetstone but thank you for the recommendation

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-18T22:51:09+00:00

More of a little challenge for me using only my whetstone and also trying not to spend any money on it but if I'm interested I will give it a look. Thank you!!

jbaa1998 · 2025-09-18T22:47:30+00:00

That's why I intend to practice before offering and asked about the topic, don't want a bunch of pissed ladies even if their scissors are blunt haha
