This is true except for the knives part. They generally sell the knives that will be communal and abused - not the ones meant for finesse.

I think for most people those types of knives are fine, but I agree that if someone is really into the art of cooking then investing in some bougie knives is definitely worth it-- they're absolutely a level up! My old man use to work for a knife dealer (idk how else to describe it; he imported knives from Japan for private sale to chefs) so we got gifted some meals at higher-end local restaurants, and based on that experience idk a single chef who doesn't have their own bag of personal $$$ knives lmao

Knives are 100% worth spending time learning about and finding some that fit your hand, abuse, and lifestyle.
