They are designed for professional use, meet NSF requirements and do not break or shatter like “home use” knives can and stand up to years of daily sharpening and use. “Home use” knives are not designed for daily use.
The brands referenced here use better grades of steel than those you usually find in a home.

Alright, give me the best, comfortable & the simplest practical way of sharpening knives. I been shown to wet the sharpening stone at first. One time I was cutting 1KG of carrots into batons (rectangle stick shapes), & realize my knife was so dull. My problem might be the fact I never sharpened my Chef Knife after 4 weeks I bought it. Therefore the sharpening must be hard to get to its original sharpness to the stage I bought it.
Please help me on how to get my knives as sharp & as close to the beginning sharpness it was bought. Keep in mind that my knives was not sharpened till 4 weeks after I bought it. I’ve used it 4-6 days for main meals every week. Any help & tips would be appreciated =)

I want to buy some of the professional chefs knives, they are all made from one piece of metal and they have a sort of serrated edge carved onto the side of the knives i know that they are japanese. They do not have a handle made of another material. I have tried to google them but i can’t find the name so it’s bringing all the nippon ones up and the sabatier which aren’t the correct ones. Does anyone know that name of the ones that i have described??
