I agree with you Kevint in that so many people do not sharpen any cutting instrument, I see my partners parents hacking away at cooked meats with knives that would give you a friction burn rather than cut you, and no matter how many times I shapren them they will not keep the edge up even though I provided a basic pull through sharpener!

As a professional chef I cherish my knives and keep them honed to perfection just like my razors and cannot stand by when people use such blunt instruments to prep food as I have seen so many times before

People do not understand that a sharp instrument is much better and safer than a blunt one.
