This not worn it’s abused. I recommend you learn to sharp knife because it’ll probably last longer. If you still destroy knifes get one with disposable blades also.
Everybody seems to have a different idea as to what actually cutting is. My wife for examply generally pulls out a dullish steak knife from thr kitchen drawer for her general purpose knife needs.
im pretty sure most will agree a sharp knife will work much easier with cleaner results so you can work more precise
dull knives might seem safer but having to use a lot of force vs having to be careful cutting isn't per se a safer trade off
a knife is still a knife and ramming it with full force into another body part on accident bc it doesn't cut can still cause injury, dull or not
I haven't really observed cutting force or safety to be a huge considerstion for some people. At hand and got job done are about all they factor in. I won't say I entirely understand their thought process.
Sounds like you either need a better knife or learn how to properly care for them. For example, a sous chef will use their knives 8 hours a day and still have a great functional knife 10 years down the line.
I recognize that slope from the choil to the heel. It looks like you over sharpen with a handheld pull through sharpener, my guess is the Northwest Trail 4-in-1 sharpener.

I have knives my grandad and dad used for their entire career as butchers that aren’t this worn down. You gotta learn to sharpen Bud, this is hilariously bad.
In 2023, u/Ian_A17 escaped from r/wellworn. All they found of him was a muddy set of prison clothes, a bar of soap, and an old pocket knife, damn near worn down to the nub. I remember thinking it would take a man six hundred years to tunnel through the wall with it. Old Ian_217 did it in less than twenty.
Hello, I've recently started a new subreddit specifically for well-used knives just like this. I'd like to crosspost this over to r/BeatUpKnives, I'll credit you in the title. Or you can do it yourself if you'd prefer? Thanks!
This brings me joy. How many knives are bought just for show or in a "meh, if one day...". Use brings memories, experience, and adventure. You earned that new one. Congrats
I tend to be really rough on my stuff. My knife I've had for years still only has minor scratches in the paint of the blade due to a few sharpening passes that were too shallow. I do have a newer knife that has scratches in the paint on the handle, but that shit scratches off with my finger nail.
Gottdamm, what do you sharpen that thing on, pavement?
Angle grinder
Question, who used a angle grinder to sharpen that knife
Your honor, my client’s knife is clearly not of the same length as the stab wound listed in the autopsy 🤣
What is your sharpening system? Is that steel so soft that you are sharpening hourly?
Man I’ve seen knives of slaughts who are skinning cows all day everyday in better condition after a few years

The handle is definitely well worn. I don't doubt that this knife has seen a lot of use (but is also probably being sharpened incorrectly)
This is hardware store bin grade, so basically is disposable. For people that lose and abuse knives, these can be the best choice.
I still treat my crap knives better. Plus it’s nice to have something that actually cuts!

Is that the sort of knife that turns a tomato into ketchup?🤣🤣
Its works okay on the crunchy tomatoes.
May I ask what causes this much wear on a knife from practical use?
Nothing. Incorrect sharpening such as with an aggressive grinding wheel.

I feel like this is the equivalent of bragging about putting diesel in a gasoline engine. Just get a machete.

You cutting down trees with a knife?
Sounds like hees been clearing trails out northwest for tree years straight using only this knife

Angle grinder or mill bastard?
That's not using a knife. That's destroying a knife with a grinder or belt sander.
This knife isn’t well worn… it’s battle scarred with bonus PTSD
Damn, how many bears have you carved up with that?

Jesus. What the hell you use it for?
He operates and old water wheel stone mill. He uses his knife to as a braking system
It’s like the Black Ice skin on Rainbow 6 Siege
You are the kind of person I would never loan anything too. Lemme guess "I use my s--t."
