I've only replaced my chefs knife once in 8 years of home cooking. \r\n\r\nI do heavily advise against using the dishwasher for a knife because of a few factors:\r\n\r\n- 1) Unless you're the one that loads and unloads the dishwasher every single time, a random surprise knife in the utensil slot could be dangerous\r\n\r\n- 2) Even if you placed it in there, how often do you just grab a whole handful of clean utensils at once to put them away? What if you forgot you left a steak knife in there? \r\n\r\n- 3) Lets say you date a new girl. She stays over. helps unload your dishwasher. Reaches down to the forks.

Yes, using a whetstone is the best way to sharpen a knife which is why professional chefs use whetstones to sharpen their knives, but if you are a regular home cook with a life outside of your kitchen then it might not be the best option. [A two stage pull through sharpener](https://www.amazon.com/KitchenIQ-50009-Stage-Knife-Sharpener/dp/B001CQTLJM/) may not get your knife as sharp as using a whetstone, but it's also quicker, more convenient, and foolproof to use, and thus much more likely that a home cook is going to sharpen their dull knife now using that method instead of continuing to use a dull knife while saying that they bust out the whetstone and sharpen it \"some day\"","subreddit_name":"AskMen","author":"galacticdude7"},{"body":"I bought one of [THESE](https://www.amazon.com/KitchenIQ-50009-Stage-Knife-Sharpener/dp/B001CQTLJM/ref=sr_1_7?crid=2HYXQ4HOJNQW9\u0026amp;keywords=knife%2Bsharpeners\u0026amp;qid=1645343673\u0026amp;s=home-garden\u0026amp;sprefix=knife%2Cgarden%2C282\u0026amp;sr=1-7\u0026amp;th=1) and it works great an was cheap.","subreddit_name":"AskCulinary","author":"leaknoil2"},{"body":"That's a sharpening kit.
