I hope that this is the right place for it, but I really need to rant.
Last night, I went home from an abusive day at work.
I reached for my favorite (and sharpest gyuto), only to find that my sister had:
1. Wedged a 255 mm gyuto into an undersized drawer
2. jamming the drawer shut
3. With the edge facing the front
4. after breaking off 8-12mm off the tip
5. and creating a series of 2 mm chips along the edge.
AAAARGH!
I think that I was pretty restrained in a.) not cursing at her, b.) not raising my voice, etc.
She is never allowed to touch my good knives, nor will I consider getting her anything nicer than a $12 cleaver.
Other instances include:
1. My ex roommate using my knife on a ceramic plate and wondering why it gets dull quick.
2. My dad who routinely uses the wrong end of our paring knives.
3. The "helpful" idiot that will use a knife on a stone countertop, and stick it in the dishwasher.
Any other stories? I'm not sure if this is the right place for this thread.
I'm sure that Salty, and the other pros have awesome stories.
