The dwarf finally admits he's totally devoid of any knife skills, and
in fact he's very ascared of sharps... at best he can prepare slovenly
sandwiches, and with presliced cheapo bread... the dwarf substitutes
his lack of ability with knife skills by hiding all his food under
fiery pepper sauce, pepper sauce he has to buy because he hasn't a
clue how to make his own... what a culinary loser!
