Wait is this a club for dull men, or a dull club for men?

Who did?

And, how can you tell it was sharpened from the picture? Usually, when I’ve seen sharpened knives, the cutting edge has scratch marks perpendicular to the blade and is wider than normal from being grinded into a longer slant.

Yeah this isn’t going to hold an edge very long.

It looks like he just resurfaced it, but didn’t grind in a new edge…

I’d give it ~1 hour of working time before it’s dull again

Is that knife dishwasher safe?

I hand wash everything. I started a thread about it here, but it turned into a fight, so I deleted it.

I hand wash my good stuff, definitely makes a difference. I’ve had the rivets on decent quality pots corrode and fail after I got a dishwasher

Yes, it would be. The main reason things aren’t dishwasher safe is the detergent or heat can damage the material. Food grade stainless steel would be fine with both.

Just so you know putting blades through the dishwasher dulls them faster, the main thing is the edge will warp due to differences in temperature so you’ll need to hone them with a steel afterwards to keep the edge consistent, you’ll also probably need to use a whetstone more often.

But up to you, I’ve got ‘trash and bash’ knives I put through all the time, but I keep my expensive knives away from it

Dull Men's Club

!dull_mens_club@lemmy.world

Create post

An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men’s Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of “discuss” rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine or advice forum.
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions, identify objects or get advice. We accept very few questions, and they must be over topics much more difficult than what is easily discoverable with a search. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. Not hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with “So” - starting a post with pointless phrases, like “I hope this is allowed” or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

8. All polls must have an “Africa, by Toto” option. Why? Because we hear the drums echoing tonight.
