This is like when you go round someone’s house for dinner and they ostentatiously get out the “Japanese steel” to chop the vegetables with, which you have to ceremonially bloody on your palm every time it comes out of the block. Later you see the shitty little serrated knife they normally use while helping load the dishwasher.
probably, they used the “shitty little serrated knife” for something that needed serrations.
Just because you have a nice Santoku, doesn’t mean that you won’t be using other knives for specific purposes. Our Nakiri cuts nothing but vegetables, fruits, nuts and herbs. I won’t use it for anything else.
I have knives that only cut apples for decades now.
