I was prepping dinner the other day and noticed that my Deba and Nakiri were not as sharp as I like. Fast forward a couple of days, I have an evening free. I'm sitting on the porch drinking coffee, sharpening my knives. My neighbour pokes his head over the fence and says "HEY! Can you do one of mine?" I said, "Sure, bring it over."
He proceeds to come over with his ENTIRE cutlery set of sh*tty made in china knives. I couldn't believe it! How does "can you do ONE of mine" turn into 20 knives?. We had a bit of a laugh about it, and I told him to choose three of them. I didn't see the point of sharpening them though, he keeps them all in a drawer banging around against each other. I guess not everyone cares for their tools as well as I do.
Has this sort of thing ever happened to you? You offer to sharpen a single knife and it turns into a drawer full?
