He was very impressed with the knives although I think he is afraid of them which may not be a bad thing. I'm supposed to get my 1st piece of cookware any day now with the 2nd box of my SS1. He loves the way the challah has been coming out now that I'm baking it regularly. Anything that makes me start doing more of the cooking he is very much in favor of. :D
You're in less danger of cutting yourself with sharp knives than you are with dull ones, because the knife does all the work. With dull knives, you're pushing too hard and that's when accidents occur.

The same is true of dull cutting tools you buy at WALLY WORLD. ;)

That is true when cutting that one is more likely to get hurt with a dull knife. I'm not sure that is true when cleaning by hand.
 
I get a Tupperware e-mail newsletter. They seem to be having some sort of sale all the time. I think they overinflate the prices so they can have great sales so you think you're getting a deal.
