It gets worse. People will go like “this shit is dull” blame the knife and won’t even consider it needs to be sharpened (or don’t want to) chuck it or give it away and BUY NEW knives like every 1-2 years not realizing these things could last decades. All because they think they are too lazy but the whole procedure is actually more work.

Then you have the group who just use dull knives forever and accept it because they think sharp knives are dangerous. And then not realize how much more dangerous that is to use a dull knife that will slip off of things more so than a sharp knife would.

I don’t know how these people function day to day…

I actually did once know someone that I encouraged to buy a new (cheapish but decent) chef’s knife. A few months later I asked how they liked it, and they were like “oh I left it in the sink sitting in water overnight one too many times, and it developed rust spots, so I trashed it” 🤯
