Based on the wonderful discussion we had on my gumbo post, I'd figure I ought to do another post in a similar fashion.
It seems that many dramatards completely lack any semblance of knowledge when it comes to the kitchen.
Keeping your knives sharp is a necessity if you plan on cooking anything at home.
For 150 dollars, you can have a great knife, and everything you need to take care of it.
I'm willing to give knife advice to anyone who asks. I feel it's my duty to educate dramatards on (arguably) useful life skills.
Also, unrelated, but wtf is shave butter? I got a walmart online order, and they ran out of the brand of shaving cream I bought. Rather than swapping the brand of the product, they gave me their shaving butter. They were also out of Sam's Purified Drinking Water

i'm too lazy to post a picture, but I do most of my food cutting with an always razor sharp Henckel, Morakniv, or Victororinox.
And I sharpen them as needed on a cheap whetstone on the countertop, sometimes daily.

I'm surprised you sharpen the Victororinox so often, they tend to hold an edge fairly well in my experience.

Are you slicing and dicing 12 hours a day?

I really like Fuji Cutlery.
The best cheap knives I've seen. To be fair, I do prefer Japanese style knives over German.
If you're having to sharpen daily, I'd recommend a strop.
