Years ago I used a balisong for most of my cooking. Not ideal, but it
actually had good^Wdecent steel and was convenient (flip open, chop
onions, rinse and wipe, flip closed :-). Then I used a handforged 6"
bowie knife (superb carbon steel). My point is that the right tools make
the job easier (sometimes *much* easier), but you can always prepare
food, even if all you have is a flint chard (works OK, but is not good
for things like carrots and won't last long).

No, he was *clearly* a Jew.  The blue skin and the wings give it away.
