    packaging thodi loose thi par product ekdam solid

    Delivery box thoda dab gaya tha par andar wine-colored ceramic stone bilkul safe tha. Jab use kiya to pata chala ki kitna fast cutting hai ye. Bina kisi long soaking ke seedha use karo aur sharp edge pao. Bahut badiya finishing stone hai, mere sare knives ekdum chamak gaye.

    badiya sharpening hua bhai

    Maine apne pocket knives aur kitchen blades ke liye ye mangwaya tha. Iska vitrified ceramic abrasive material ekdam solid kaam karta hai aur bar bar dishing bhi nahi hota. Sabse acchi baat ye hai ki isko lambe time tak paani me bhigane ki zaroorat nahi padti, bas thoda paani mara aur sharpening shuru. Value for money cheez hai.
