I bought cast iron pan which I think is the best ever purchase I made.

I bought some knife set that cost like 1000 dollars. It was an impulsive buy when I won an award at work.

Damn I learned expensive knives are worth every penny. I’ve had them twenty years. Normally I’d buy a knife and have to throw it away after a couple of years because they couldn’t be sharpened as they were cheap.

I cook every day and it makes it so much easier.

You can sharpen every knife. Better knifes stay sharper for longer, but they still need to be sharpened regularly. This also applies to ceramic knifes, which stay sharper even longer, but also need to be sharpened after a lot of use.

Oh I wasn't aware you could sharpen ceramic knives. Does it require different tools to sharpen than steel knives?

Diamond dust grinder wheel. Hard to find.

Just wait for the knife sharpening man to roll through town at that point
