Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.

The rules are simple:

The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
The comic must be a complete story.
If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
You may post comics from others or your own.
If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
Politeness.
Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

My wife ran my one of a kind, handmade, tamahagane steel knife through the dishwasher. She load and unloads the dishwasher now, but she hasn't run it since.

My condolences

[–] ohwhatfollyisman@lemmy.world 17 points 4 months ago (1 children)

surely she's attacking the wrong problem? the issue wasn't that she ran the dishwasher in the first place, it was that she loaded the wrong item into the dishwasher.

if this story is true, then she should avoid loading the dishwasher. running it or not is immaterial.

The point is that I check before running it. Not loading anything into it at all is equivalent to punishing me indefinitely for her mistake.

My wife loading the dishwasher punishes me because I have rearrange things, so it's like I'm doing double work. There's a system!

[–] JoMiran@lemmy.ml 2 points 4 months ago (1 children)

I swear they do it on purpose.

And that's why I'll be rocking my mustache.

Does this actually somehow destroy the knife? Its wooden handle, or the blade itself? Surely this elvish steel can withstand boiling water 🤔

[–] Chrobin@discuss.tchncs.de 4 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Pretty sure the blade is untreated, you shouldn't even wash it with soap.

[–] pearsaltchocolatebar@discuss.online 2 points 4 months ago

Washing it with soap won't hurt it. You just need to properly dry and oil it after. The dishwasher can ruin a wood handle, though.

I've heard dishwashers dull blades. I don't understand the science (assuming there is some) behind it.
