What You Should Know About Sharpening Your Knives
It is important to maintain the sharpness of your knives to ensure continued excellence in your cooking experience. When you receive a new sharp knife, you quickly realize the difference and what you have been missing. A sharp knife will cut through food with less slippage.
A dull knife requires more force which results in a higher chance of slipping and missing the mark, thus making Dull knives more dangerous. Surprisingly, poorly cut food will not cook properly, whereas a sharp knife will produce evenly cut food that cooks at an even rate.

Does Your Knife Need Sharpening? – The Paper Test
Unfortunately, even the best knives will dull with regular use over time. How do you determine if your knife needs sharpening?
