Does anyone use a Mezzaluna
My herb chopping knife has been worn away by being repeatedly sharpened and I am thinking of getting Mezzaluna to chop herbs. I have a blender but that chops herbs to finely and makes a mush of them.Does anyone use a Mezzaluna , does it do a good job and how do you keep it sharp.

Yes, I do.
It is a Thai version, steel as sharp as a razor 30 years on, I use a stone and oil to sharpen it.
It fits in a teak bowl, much kinder than stone.

. I think one would have an advantages over a knife in getting my fingers out of the way when chopping small things like garlic and chillies that I usually hold. I am extra careful chopping because of anticoagulants.
