Chef doesn’t understand why I’m upset he took my knives to get sharpened by some dude in the back of his van without my permission

    well he sure fucked up your bolsters…

    bevel doesn’t look good either.

    i probably wouldn’t want to work with someone who touches my stuff without permission.

    I’d be so mad and demand a new set lol, doubt these people give a fuck though

    You should take their SO out back behind the van without his permission and grind on it a little, see if they mind.

    I would yank his dick if I were you. Don’t touch my knives unless you want me to yank that dick, hard too.

    looks like chef owes you new knives, who the fuck does that, at least ask, i would be murderous for this, and the fact he paid for this bullshit, wonder what his knives look like lmao

    Demand a new set. That’s utter bullshit

  7. Depending on brand and material that’s several hundreds worth of damage to your property. I’d seriously be requesting him to pay for a new set after that and looking elsewhere for someone more respectful to work for

    I really hope you work somewhere big enough that HR or someone will replace them 🥶

    That’s pretty fucked. Chef owes you some knife re-finishing at the place of your choosing (ie, some place you can mail your knives for a professional restoration), if not some new knives.

    Looking at that middle knife, I’m going to assume that this was his first time sharpening anything.

    I’m not even sure the blade is straight anymore. I’m pretty sure he went too slow, then sped up, then too slow again. And I think that there’s at least three different angles. It was probably a bench grinder with one single random grit, not even intended for sharpening knives.

    If that’s what acceptable, maybe I should start a sharpening business. I might not be great, but I’m not that bad. Practice for an hour on my guided stone, and my guided grinder, and I’ll be set. And at least it’ll be consistent.

    Oh my gods! I’m so sorry. I’d quit on the spot.

    One of the worst days of my life and honestly the day i gave up trying to be at any place respectable. I was working a place in Eugene Or. A van guy came in regularly. Kinda had let my self fall off on keeping everything in my case sharp. Right before lunch started I caught him and handed him twenty bucks. Explained that three of my knives were Japanese style. He nodded and said he knew what he was doing. He elected to sharpen the flat side on all three. Now I use my 165 dollar shun as a fucking pizza cutter. Thankfully I was in the process of moving. My heart hurts typing this. And that was 4 years ago. Ugh

    That middle knife is beyond repair. Once the bevel meets the granton edge the knife cuts poorly. There’s no going back on that one.

    Yeah, I would be looking for a new job and then the moment I got one, quitting, and filing a small claims suit for the cost of replacements.

    Be grateful that he helped you out by finding a dirt cheap sharpening job!!! /s

    The fact that he even had the AUDACITY to touch someone elses knives and equipment without permission makes me so angry for you. But then doing THIS to them!? I’d be fuming.

  17. JellyRollMort

    Jesus Christ. What did he sharpen them with? A chisel?

  18. yells_at_bugs

    I would think of touching someone’s privates akin to touching someone’s cutlery without permission. Way out of pocket. Stop calling that person chef. They are a shoemaker.

  19. Lady_of_Link

    I have never in my life sharpened a knife or now how it works yet I can still tell that this was a horrible job, chef is a moron and better replace them

  20. Sharp-Study3292

    Your knifes? Yeah hes buying you new knifes or buys these off from you. Your not touching those, they might be murder weapons. Dont trust shit

  21. Hambone704

    I’m shocked he didn’t sharpen the entire handle too

  22. gruntothesmitey

    Hopefully they’re sharp enough to cut a bitch.
