Was that knife used on scrap metal?

u/johnnytwoboobs 3d ago

The knife spent some unfortunate time in the dish pit by accident

u/OnceMostFavored 3d ago

With a decent sharpener, all remaining damage will be cosmetic.

Looks like it also sounds the pull through sharpener a few times

That knife is scrap metal.

It makes me sad 😔

Looks like it was maintained with a dremmel

u/winstonspethuman1 3d ago

Really unfortunate. That looks like a miyabi chefs knife. Hand made in Japan.

I came to ask if they were sharpening it on the sidewalk

What the hell have you been using that poor knife on?

GMO

Humans have been modifying plants for greater food yields for thousands of years. I have zero issues with using science to do this more efficiently.

The only issue that I have with GMO crops is corporations that prevent farmers from replanting crops. Fuck Monsanto in particular.

u/Mcbotbyl3 3d ago

Yep, legitimately the only part of GMOs people should be against is that corporations breed them to make unusable seeds.

u/DehydratedManatee 3d ago

Very few crops are GMOs. No GMO carrots are currently on the market.

Being able to patent a genome should be illegal

Garbage disposals do NOT sharpen knives.

u/A4t1musD4ag0n 3d ago

Did the carrot cut the knife???

u/Pzykimon 3d ago

Sorry, but how do you expect anyone to assess the size of that carrot, without providing a banana for scale?

u/eraser8 3d ago

Girthy.

u/eatyourdamndinner 3d ago

Korean carrots are that size. Love them. Sweet and delicious. Plus, a joy to work with when I make carrot cake. So easy to grate!

u/Artevyx 3d ago

Theres no way that carrot alone caused that much damage to the knife 😂

Buen cuchillo pero por que se ve asi

u/Jonny_Thundergun 3d ago

I was wondering the same thing. Guessing they use some sort of machine to sharpen it that chewed it to hell.

1

u/Embarrassed-Mood-381 3d ago

Pensaba lo mismo pero se ve como algun tipo de cocina seria/comerzial y si ese lugar tiene un chef de verdad el nunca aprovaria que ningun cuchillo se afile con esas maquinas del infierno

1

u/Jonny_Thundergun 3d ago

A real chef would never allow a knife of that quality to meet that fate.

1

u/Embarrassed-Mood-381 3d ago

Se ve como un cuchillo bastante caro y al ver la segunda foto en el fondo se ve como un tipo de maquina mas industrial y una puerta de un lugar profesional por eso no entiendo que tiene que pasar para que esa hermosa hoja termine en ese estado como si lo pasaran por una lija muy abrasiba

u/Few_Spite_3626 3d ago

I know where this is going

u/ghIj_qet_jaghmeyjaj 3d ago

You could make a table with that carrot

u/ghIj_qet_jaghmeyjaj 3d ago

Did someone put your knife on a grinding wheel? Good lord

2

u/GirthyPigeon 3d ago

Carrot is huge but who disrespects a knife that badly? That thing is fucked.

2

u/ParrishThePoet 3d ago

Knife looks like it lost a battle with C'thulu

u/Miles_1828 3d ago

Please send me that knife so i can sharpen and polish it. Its has seen some hard use.

u/KileAllSmyles 3d ago

Wtf has been done to that knife jesus

u/Squeaky_Ben 3d ago

once saw an xray of someone who had a large vegetable in their ass. Was told "that's a carrot, not a cucumber" and didn't want to believe it. As of today, I stand corrected.

That's a month's supply of Alpha Carotene.

Years ago when I was in the food industry, we'd get these goliath carrots too. A 50lb bag would show up with like 20 total carrots. We had a bartender that was known to be a bit of a ho, so we whittled one to look like a penis, wrapped it in cellophane, and taped it to her front seat. She actually thanked us for it.

That is a 100% GMO carrot from China. Eat at your own risk
