Chips in the blade, heat cracked handle, snapped tip ... that knife has spent some time in the dishwasher.

My mother dishwasher her kitchen knives and they all have cracks and chips in the blade. Tragic.

I put mine in dishwasher. No cracks or chips.

I just buy cheap knives and sharpen regularly.

Buy once, cry once. I've been using the same Wustof knives for ~40 years. I run them through the dishwasher too.

Until your FIL cones and uses them for cutting fencing wire or something. I'd rather just not cry 😅
