My mom has a set of nice Cutco's but for most slicing and cutting in her kitchen, she uses a knife she bought in some generic Dollar store. The knife edge on it is quite dull and I get frustrated when I grab it instead of the Cutco version. I ask her why she uses it when it doesn't cut, and she replied that she liked the way it fits in her arthritic hands.
I agree with Mark who said:

Now to get my older brother to put an edge on it sooner rather than later before something happens...
edited to add: Porthos, I would vote to put an edge on the knives.
