Walks in, assumes you're stupid, adds nothing, leaves.
On the knife bit it's no huge deal, it's not ruining anything, just hone them often. Our knives would get gangbanged all night in the kitchen, they're designed to have the angle of attack adjusted. - ex chef
Those knives do not look like they've been honed since they left the factory.
Every chef I've known took immaculate care of their knives, and they sure as fuck didn't leave them out in the kitchen for everyone else to use.
Also: the value added is in looking at the remaining particle board that's on the drawer face. You can see that it's split on the right side, and pieces have separated on the left. That doesn't have a lot of structural integrity, and gluing it isn't going to solve that long-term. If humidity is causing the glue holding the sawdust together to lose integrity, then there's not a lot that can be done that will actually fix the problem permanently. Sure, glue it back together. Then it breaks again, only in a slightly different place. Rinse, repeat. This is the problem with particle board, and why it doesn't belong in a kitchen or bathroom.
