Checked on an old kitchen knife
Had a relative preparing a home-made soup in the kitchen.
"That knife sharp ?" I asked . It was then I realized how much money I saved on Arkansas stone knife sharpening.
I looked at the current prices of stones on the internet. I found them priced for three from $21 to $50 dollars. The latter a shock since my stones are over 20 years old, and purchased on sale at a store that over-stocked them. Paid about eight dollars to sharpen knives.
The relative, a good cook, was interested in a better knife sharpener. A common story I'm afraid.
Was surprised I resharpened the knife in two minutes. Sure glad knife sharpening become a hobby of mine. Sure was a good home made soup.
