My tools serve me, not the other way around. It’s not worth the time and effort to wash by hand or sharpen on a whetstone. I don’t need an expensive knife to cook at home. A pull through sharpener and honing steel are adequate. Get the right material and you don’t have to worry about the metal in the dishwasher.

    As long as you’re not one of those weirdos that insist pull through sharpeners are just as good as properly sharpening it.

    Most people don’t need a perfectly sharp knife. Are they nice to have? Absolutely. But as long as you don’t let them get dangerously dull, who cares.
