I don't think we use knives while eating more than once a month at home.
Our protein of choice is seafood, usually salmon and shrimp. I sear tuna steaks for soft tacos, but I slice the steak and prepare the tacos in the kitchen.
We love grilled racks of lamb, but I carve into chops in the kitchen and plate. We gnaw on the grilled chops out of hand (how gauche!).
I grill pork tenderloin but these days they are so skinny, after I rest them, I slice and serve the slices on our plate that are just a one bite deal.
We love chicken. I often buy rotis chicken and debone and make into a recipe (if you need a knife for a rotis chicken you're buying it at the wrong place ☺️). I have BBQ chicken and also wings delivered, both of which we eat of of hand (with lots of napkins!).
We have pizza at least once a week either delivered, carryout or I bake a Costco frozen Detroit pizza. No knives needed other than to slice the Detroit pizza before eating.
Other meals at home are pasta, omelets, hashes, soups and stews.
I grill burgers (beef, lamb, Italian sausage) a lot in summer, too.
Our table/steak knives come out for chicken sheet pan dinners and an occasional meal of arrachera (marinated skirt steak).
