Which one did you get her? Chinese or Japanese manifacture?

The chinese ones have better grips, but the Japanese ones had better blades and were made out of a slightly better steel.

Because she needed a new one, and I knew she'd love it.

at the ups store we had those ones that have the long blade, that you snap the end off, to "sharpen" it. this girl i worked with didnt realize you could just take some pliers and snap the end off, so she said "watch your eyes" and went to press down on it on the counter. :eek3: "woooahhh.. hold on"
On most, theres a plastic cap that comes off that you can use to snap off the dull blade. h:
