Last year I went with my sister to a knife shop in Seattle. I've been piddling around with my knives and finally have decided to go to one in Austin hoping it will be as good as hers in Seattle. I've got a couple of very good Henkel knives that need to be sharpened and a bunch of mediocre ones that also need to be sharpened but may not deserve it.
And I need to buy a primary chopping knife. I know what I want (and can't afford it but never mind that) and have been putting up with mediocre ones for ages. I think it is time to upgrade. I use five knives for various purposes but the same one for 80% of my kitchen work.
The downside is that the store is in Austin. But there is another stop I want to make on the way back at a Woodworking store. Now that Covid is gone in Texas (the governor said so) I'm wanting to investigate shop classes again.
So an hour round trip not including stops at the two locations. Quite the trip for me.
