I also get my knives from a restaurant supply store. To be exact an Asian restaurant supply store in China Town. They sharpen well and are cheap to replace.

Some of our favorite cooking utensils have come from the Asian Supermarket in our town.

Oh no i got a nakiri with a wood handle of some sort. I wouldn't buy an actual cleaver cause i have no need for one and neither does anyone in my house. It's a nice all around knife and i have about a year with it i think. Haven't replace it because it has yet to chip or become very dull but i hone it on a stone on the occasion. But when I do replace it, it'll be less than a McDonald's meal in price.

No, its a Suba. Suba is better for working with this quantity.

My grandmother honed on her stone kitchen steps. When she passed away her knives were sharp, old, half the size my father remembered.
The top step was worn almost to nothing.

That’s not honing though. That’s sharpening. A honing rod is metal and reshapes the blade edge to make it sharp again by aligning the point. Stones sharpen the blade by removing metal.

This. I have 20 year old knives and I expect them to outlast me.

Go to Tap Phong, but even Nella is good for this (but is becoming more fancy end-user all the time).

I use these kiwi knifes as beaters which I get from a Asian market for dirt cheap. It’s shocking how long they hold a edge.
