Yeesh, ya, you don't need to "learn" to sharpen, just get one of those pull-throughs. They is a minuscule learning curve with with it. It doesn't do the best sharpening job but as a particularly YouTuber once said: "The best sharpener is the one you will use."
- carlosjobim 8mo agoPeople don't want to do it and they don't want to learn to do it. It's easier for them to buy a new knife. They're not expensive. Maybe keep the old one for garage stuff and gardening.

- gggggggoodlord 8mo agoA new knife might not be expensive, but it's a new thing that has to be produced, and packaged, and shipped, and stored, and so on. Just keep your old stuff in shape, people.
