If You Keep Kitchen Knives in a Block, This Trick Will Keep Them Sharp for Longer
The article discusses a simple trick to keep kitchen knives sharp for longer when stored in a knife block. Traditionally, knife blocks have been the go-to storage solution, but the way we place the knives in the block can actually dull the blades over time. The key is to store the knives in the block with the sharp edge facing down. This prevents the blades from rubbing against each other or the sides of the block, which can cause them to lose their edge prematurely. By reversing the orientation, the blades are protected and maintain their sharpness for longer. The article emphasizes that this simple change in knife storage can extend the life of your kitchen knives, saving you money and time spent on frequent sharpening. It's a practical, cost-effective tip that can help home cooks and chefs alike keep their knives in top condition for years to come.
