Good quality, with care, will last forever.

Yes! We are hard on them, but I don’t think we will ever wear them out. I hone them a few times each month and tune them up once-a-year. I realize now that I could have saved some money by just keeping my eyes open for older used ones (like yours) over the years.
About fifteen years ago I took a weekend job at a large antique gallery on top of my 40-60hr/wk manufacturing job. There used to be so many good quality knives and cast-iron pans back then. I suppose it’s all on eBay now.
