When I was a kid a guy got around on a cart door knocking offering to sharpen knives …

@TheOneyouwerewarnedabout you let him do it?
@caPnAhab I think dad got him to sharpen a knife once..
like the milkman.. you just stopped him outside your house if you wanted him to stop 👍

I bought some new knives and I never use them because they're too sharp, and I'm afraid I'm going to cut myself. I've even cut my finger tips unloading them from the dishwasher because they are in there point side up, and I just grab them and forget they are there (my hub likes to use them).
@Spoiledbrat Being a serious home gourmet, and used to cook in restaurants, I like my cutlery sharper than razors, you can see the system I use in my own comment.

@Spoiledbrat With practice, you'll get comfortable with it, I'm sure.

A lot like driving a car... I can't drive a car
@Spoiledbrat Believe it or not, it's more dangerous to cut something with a dull knife because you have to use more force and it can slip. Professional chefs always use razor-sharp knives.
I saw this too and had to purchase ginsu knives

@mindlessdrifter that's good to hear. As a kid, I never had any use for incredibly sharp knives

@mindlessdrifter Ginsu. That's a blast from the past. Good knives too.
@Crazywaterspring Yes they sure are

I sharpen my pocket knives and hunting knives with Arkansas whetstones. A sharp knife is safer to use than a dull one.

I really don't remember this one. 🤣

@DeWayfarer must've been from the early 2000s I think

@caPnAhab Him. Was watching some TV then. I should have seen it at some point. 🤷🏻‍♂️

That's...a block of wood 😐

@pride49 that's why it was funny

I know knives very well.

I know how to put new blade edge on them. Like I can change a butter knife into a straight razor and shave with it.
I have a $400 sharpening system, it gets all my cutlery so scary razor sharp you wouldn't even know you cut yourself, until you see gushing blood.
