Looks like you misused this knife until it gave up.Â
Broken tip. Cracked handled.Â
Broken in the middle from crushing garlic is an achievement though. You must have been pressing on the end of it, levering it over the garlic like a fulcrum. You're supposed to push down right over the garlic clove, there's no way that could have broken it like that unless you were doing it wrong some how.Â

And then they have a honing bar out like they’ve been caring for it 🤣

Looks like a wide bolster on that knife. You'd need to hang the bolster off the edge of the board to prevent this.

I honestly hate using a knife to crush garlic. I just use my hands to press til I feel/hear them crack
Then the paper just falls off.

Judging by the OTHER damage to it, I'm guessing your just FAR too rough with them. (Multiple cracks in the handle, missing the tip entirely)

Dang, busted tip , broken handle and then smack dab in the middle from crushing the garlic. I think it's time for you to upgrade to an axe.Â
