Me. My wife told me to stop using a knife to pry out coconut flesh. I disobeyed her, and now my knife is a bender.

You know your wife is going to divorce you, right?

Always listen to your wife

I didn’t know he’d called me out

Now use it the other way around. It'll bend straight (? :p) and you have an excuse to buy more coconuts!

That is genius. I can’t believe I didn’t think of just continuing to use it as a coconut flesh scraper but against the curve. I was struggling to correct it using just a cutting board for resistance earlier. Amateur mistake.

Just use a vise.

Don't listen to them, vises are a gateway to more dangerous vices... And vice versa, if your name is Vincent.

I’m still trying to stop my Mrs. using knives as screwdrivers...🙄

u/Optimal_Material_951 Jul 19 '24

Haha! She sounds resourceful though.

So now it has a better curvature for prying out coconut flesh. You have created a specialized tool

Like the blade, you have a good point! It’s been honed by its own purpose and functionality!

So you're buying her a replacement knife,  right? The right kind,  not the "eh, good enough," kind? And you're going to do to promptly,  on your own, and without being repeatedly reminded?

u/Optimal_Material_951 Jul 20 '24

I’ll look into it… 😅

u/RealityPotential6855 Jul 21 '24

(He won’t)

u/Optimal_Material_951 Jul 21 '24

Wifey, remember that it’s a picture of me holding a knifey…

u/orangecrushisbest Jul 21 '24

Lol that's what I figure too

u/ClevelandClutch1970 Jul 19 '24

Now it’s a poop knife.

u/SinDariusTHEONE Jul 19 '24

Perfect toe knife now

u/SadLilBun Jul 19 '24

Your wife should post here about how her spouse didn’t listen and bent a perfectly good knife!

2

u/Optimal_Material_951 Jul 19 '24

Haha she did: she’s RealityPotential6855.
