Oh no, they'll use crappy blunt knives for a few years.
And they'll keep them in a drawer and cut on plates and glass "cutting boards."
I just realized why my pizza cutters never last long...
Ugh. I went through that for years with my sister. I finally got together with my brother in law and we surreptitiously threw away all the glass cutting boards after I was getting really tired of hearing her constantly bitching about all her knives being "crap." This was such a tooth pulling exercise because she absolutely would not allow anyone to put two and two together for her. In her mind, all the knives constantly being dull was everyone else's fault.
Somehow I simultaneously "don't know what I'm talking about," but I'm also specifically asked to bring my entire kit every time I visit so I can sharpen every piece of cutlery in the house. Since apparently I'm the only one who can do it properly. Hmm.
I had a roommate like that once! She insisted on using a glass cutting board and would never get rid of the damned thing... Apparently she couldn't chop onions without having a copy of a Van Gogh painting underneath them lol
we have one that is clear, it only gets used for raw chicken basically. it's much easier to sanitize after. i wonder if theres a good alternative for that use case?
