    So, that’s what they’re doing with all my swords. Neat.



  2. Neko Lord on June 12, 2023 at 2:45 pm

    So this is why my friend’s mom wanted my 11th century broadsword.



  3. Rick Williams on June 12, 2023 at 2:45 pm

    I’m very well aware that it’s a joke, but you CAN hone it, not sharpen. Big misunderstanding

  10. Steve Libby on June 12, 2023 at 2:59 pm

    I once used a sword to kill a snake that gotten into the house. Only because it was the only thing I had that had any reach to it.



  13. The NetherOne on June 12, 2023 at 3:06 pm

    Monster hunter players be like



  14. Smittie Talks on June 12, 2023 at 3:09 pm

  16. Avinash Singh on June 12, 2023 at 3:09 pm

    Is that the thundercats sword?



  17. kxmode on June 12, 2023 at 3:12 pm

    Is that a Chef’s Knife?
    Sword.
    Whatever.



  18. Matt Baker on June 12, 2023 at 3:12 pm

    This is one of those things you’d never know if you aren’t a professional chef. I’ve been taking my 9th century Frankish broadsword and my Chinese cleaver to the local blacksmith when I could have just been using them to sharpen the other.



  19. ThemoreThemerrier on June 12, 2023 at 3:12 pm

    I sharpen my kitchen knives with my gun.



  20. Dmitri Telvanni on June 12, 2023 at 3:13 pm

    My friend cut his birthday cake with anduril once.

    Really more of a blade for shearing mammoth meat than cake but hey whatever.



  21. James Bennett on June 12, 2023 at 3:13 pm

    Finally, a practical use for my swords that won’t have the police complaining about having to pick up pieces of home invaders.



  22. The Original Chefboyoboy on June 12, 2023 at 3:14 pm

    I was working at a hotel in the USVI in a different lifetime and all the native ladies working in the kitchen only had one tool – a 12" long prime rib slicing knife that they used to perform all their tasks: slicing vegetables, peeling cucumbers etc, making radish roses, and more. And they would all sharpen their knife by running it along the edge of a table.
    And all of us imported fancy "chefs" from the states had a toolbox full of endless gadgets, one thingamabob for one specific purpose, and that combined cost us hundreds of dollars, and would easily get rusty.
    Who was smarter than whom? LOL great memories, I owe so much to those ladies.



  23. NextExiter on June 12, 2023 at 3:15 pm

    Whoever made this didn’t understand the essence of the bit. They needed a real broken-in medieval sword. And the line should have been "just borrow your husband’s", or "your father’s." You would also want to include some other world-building bits. Maybe "be sure to sanitize any pieces of bloody scalp from the guard, before touching blade to blade."



  24. Jeff Alcazar on June 12, 2023 at 3:16 pm

    what happens if you do it near a support beam?



  25. Red-pilled Hacker on June 12, 2023 at 3:18 pm

  32. Celestial Salamander on June 12, 2023 at 3:24 pm

    Sketch would be better if the sword did not look so fake.

    What sukks is that one kitchen sword can sharpen 12 knives but it takes 14 knives to sharpen one kitchen sword.
    If only there was a better way.
