My tools serve me, not the other way around. It’s not worth the time and effort to wash by hand or sharpen on a whetstone. I don’t need an expensive knife to cook at home. A pull through sharpener and honing steel are adequate. Get the right material and you don’t have to worry about the metal in the dishwasher.
She bled out while trying to argue with me about whose fault it was. RIP Jessica. It wasn’t the knife, it was your lack of respect for the knife.
The human race requires judgment. You were simply separating that chaff from the wheat.
