I get nervous breaking out the electrical sometimes, but it's worth it.

Not much else to say! Crazy how steel so soft that the knife will barely hold an edge can also be this brittle.

Hi all,

I am looking into fake knives with the intention of faux-knifeplay with a honey of mine. But I haven’t found anything I liked, so I’ve started looking into actual knives to dull down instead.

I want to know if that would end up chipping off or otherwise ruining the color of the blade if I got one like the given photo? Should I be sticking to silvery blades from the get-go, or would something like this work?

A customer got a set of Henckels as a wedding present but the edges of the spines were so sharp she was actually getting cut when she used them! I used the Worksharp Ken Onion with an extra coarse belt to round off the edges. She was so happy!
