Why Regular Knife Sharpening is Important

Keeping your knives sharp is not just a matter of convenience; it’s a matter of safety and efficiency. A sharp knife requires less force, making it safer to handle and more precise to use. Dull knives, on the other hand, can slip and increase the risk of injury. Regular sharpening also extends the life of your knives by preventing excessive wear on the blade.
