I only ever use my IKEA paring knife to open packets of meat, my Sabatier was used to pry open a lid and the tip snapped. An IKEA chef's knife does most of the heavy lifting these days. I'm too scared/CBF to use my good knives.
A few months ago I got home from work one evening and found my precious Damascus Gyuto on the bench next to the remains of a lemon that had been sliced up that morning. The blade was undamaged thankfully.
CBD oil is great.

I bought one of these https://www.procook.co.uk/product/procook-damascus-67-chefs-knife-20cm-8in
Not crazy money but still more than I'll usually spend on something that will probably get ruined eventually. Told my other half not to fuck it, a few hours later find her trying to pry open a can lid with it.
You guys actually use a paring knife? I've got 2 and they end up opening packages more than touching food. In the kitchen I think I only ever used one for butterflying prawns.
