    cheap(ish), tough, ceramic knife?

    Hahaha!! I do feel terrible about my heretical question. But I can't find a hang-head-in-shame emoji to do anything about it. Don't dimples help the potatoes fall off on cheaper knives? I know I have that problem with my own. It's quite bad and I've often thought of trying to dimple my...
