I always tell my friends, if they have helpers, everything they buy must be helperproof, otherwise dont blame the helpers🤣 I have two helpers, whenever things are damaged or missing, I ask A, A will say B, I ask B, B will say A, or both will say dont know. 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ct3833 Supersonic February 20 Share February 20 (edited) I like to share my experience about this particular kitchen cutting board. The brand is SAGE, I have been using it for many years, abused by helper but it is very difficult to get mouldy, it does not warp over time. The only downside is the price, the board cost above $100, the smaller one about $80, but it worth the money. Edited February 20 by Ct3833 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The plumber had come to clear the drainage and they tell me the problem should be resolved. But it seems like the issue still exists le. Anyone knows what could be the reason that the problem still cannot resolve ah? run a test yourself. flood your sink full of water and then release the stopper. all the water should flow without anything coming out from the floor trap. i periodically do this after pouring 3-4L of hot water down the sink. the rush of water can create a mini siphon effect to clear debris from the U-trap. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The best to preserve the edge of knives is wooden cutting boards. A good cutting board should have some give to it. Cheap, so i don't bother to take care of it. Lol. My current one already 4 years liao, can still many more years. only the bottom edge is bit mouldy cos it rests on the rack to dry.

Even with whetstone, not easy to reshape back and hone back the edge. Just use wooden cutting boards. Of course u can worry about chemicals also. But SS cutting boards. haha i can't think of anything worse for the knife. Edited February 20 by Lala81 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to sharpen it after or before evey cut ? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
