I chopped several onions, and it turned out that some of them were sefichin. What is the ruling?
Answer
All is forbidden for consumption.

A knife that was used to cut sharp sefichin becomes forbidden and requires koshering, and when it is used to cut another sharp item, even if it has not been used for a day [after twenty-four hours from the time the prohibition was cut], it is forbidden for consumption. Jerusalem Talmud (Orlah, Chapter 2, Halacha 8); Shulchan Aruch (Yoreh De'ah, Siman 96); Azmera Leshimcha (Shemita, Issue 5).
