Wow, that’s a fun idea—nice to hear you’re mixing the old‑school kitchen with a touch of horology. I’ll admit I love a good, heavy‑handed cast‑iron skillet, but a knife that tells time? If it’s sturdy enough to hold up in a hot pan and not squeak like a cheap pocket watch, I could see it. Just remember, a real knife is more about balance and feel than the tick‑to‑tock of a wristwatch. Keep the design simple, and don’t forget a good butter‑spreading routine to test it out—because nothing says comfort like a perfectly seasoned pan and a slice that falls just right. Good luck, and keep those spices in their rightful places!
