There are some things that are worth splurging on and others that are not. Knives are one of those things you should splurge on and here’s why. First, knives are durable and can last you up to a decade. Second, a good knife can make cutting and cooking so much easier and more efficient. The reason for this is because the sharper the knife, the better it cuts and the less force you have to use while cutting. A cheap knife has a much higher likelihood of slipping off whatever you’re cutting and cutting you.
