<human>: Here is a goal: How do I prolong the sharpness of a kitchen knife?

How would you accomplish this goal?

OPTIONS:
- After using the knife, wash it off and let it air dry. Store it away with your other kitchen utensils once dried. Use a honing rod to hone your knife if possible to maintain its sharpness.
- After each kitchen use, clean the knife and dry it off thoroughly with a towel. Store in a cool and not humid area. If possible, hone the knife every week or frequently to maintain its sharpness.
