I sharpen my big kitchen knife about once every month, it surprising how you 
don't notice it going blunt gradually, but then after sharpening it boy is 
it nice to use :-)  I hate going to my mum's house and trying to use her 
knives, you need to apply about 10x as much force to cut!

The only disadvantage with a really sharp knife is that you don't even 
notice when you've cut yourself "oh, why is this potato red inside?" :-)
