I bought a 40 dollar chef knife on Amazon the same time I bought the stone. Turns out it's a very good knife. When I was learning, I also sharpened every shitty knife I owned and they were like brand new.

Just practice on whatever you have. I never ruined anything with the whetstone, only with the cheaper sharpening tools.

Would you be using a stone? If so, I learned how to do it by watching YouTube videos. The Japanese master chefs have good instructional videos, and their technique is not difficult.

He has no idea how to interact normally with other human beings. So he came up with this scripted narrative about something he actually enjoys and spouts it off to anyone he can in an attempt to seem "normal" in their eyes. He's trying to act casual and get his potential victims to relax, but he can't hide his weirdness and the awkward stilted monologue sets off alarm bells, despite his best efforts.

The boy just ain't right.
