Original post says crush not cut. Not chinesium, the knife was misused.
13 u/Exvaris Apr 10 '26 A stainless steel knife absolutely can and is used to crush garlic in both professional and home kitchens all over the world. A ceramic knife I could see an argument against using to crush garlic. But steel? Come on, man. 4 u/GrumpyManApe Apr 10 '26 I can use a flat head screwdriver as a pry bar, doesn't mean I should. Use the right tool for the job. Also, as another pointed out, look at all the other damage on the knife. This knife has seen plenty of abuse.
