The article discusses the author's journey upgrading from average kitchen cutlery to a professional-level knife set after frustrations with dull knives. Previously indifferent to knife quality, the author realized that high-quality tools dramatically improve cooking efficiency and enjoyment. This shift in perception emphasizes the importance of investing in quality kitchen tools which enhance cutting efficiency and overall cooking pleasure, highlighting a transformative experience in both functionality and craftsmanship.
"A professional-level knife set. As much as I enjoy time in the kitchen, I've never been super particular about the quality of my cutlery. My previous criteria were that as long as it wasn't overly cheap (like plastic handles), crappy, or dull, it wasn't too big of a deal to me how great the knives I used were."
"My last set was finally getting on my nerves, though. I felt like I had to sharpen them too often. I decided to use a work bonus to go after a really nice set. It's difficult to explain how different it is to use great tools in the kitchen when you're used to average tools."
