Yes. I do.
If any significant number of items in your house are fabricated, it makes sense
to use as few raw materials as possible, so, for example, it would make sense to
honeycomb the inside of a knife handle, since it would still be strong enough,
and would allow you to keep a gram or two of material "in the pot" for other
projects.
Ditto everything you make.
Nonsense; the items in one's house are based on price not how elegantly
it was produced.
It makes no sense to honeycomb the inside of a knife handle as it would
add no functionality and just increase the price.
