When you’re the one doing the cooking in the house, it’s a must to have sharp knives . If you could find a kitchen knife that is sharp as diamond blades that could cut almost anything, then buy one! There is no greater hindrance to the person in the house who does the cooking than dull knives.
If you want to make cooking easier and safer, use very sharp knives. Aren’t you frustrated when your knife can’t even slip through the skin of an tomato? I am! A dull knife will smash through the onion cell walls rather than slice through them, losing more juices, so it’s arguable that a sharp knife actually results in better tasting food.
There are enough frustrations in the kitchen. Don’t compound them by using a dull knife. If you want to enjoy cooking more, get your knives sharpened. More important: if the person you love is doing the cooking, sharpen their knives!
