I guess I am in the minority because I use the blade sharpener and while it isn't the cat's meow, it does smooth out the blades for a while longer.
What I don't use are many of my rulers, the Gingher pinking sheers (waaaaay too heavy), the wooden mini-iron (what a knuckle burner), the lighted magnifying glass that hangs around the neck and neither lights nor magnifies. (Should have sprung for the expensive one.) and the cutting mat on a lazy Susan. For a while I also thought I would get into marking with stamps so I have a nice assortment of stamps cluttering up a drawer. Heavy sigh.
