When someone says something like "you've never tried a good knife?" I expect that to be followed by mentioning a blacksmith like Takeda, not a feckin Wusthof 😭

And ya, most people don't need what I just defined as an exceptionally good knife-- there's a not insignificant amount of effort needed to maintain them that I wouldn't even do if my dad hadn't made it into a permanent habit for me at a young age lmao I personally think most knives can be good knives if you know how to and keep up with sharpening them!
