Today I found 2pcs critical defects, this 2pcs defects were checked by me on Wednesday, I already stuck arrow marks on this 2pcs defective knives, they re-packed the 2pcs defective knives directly, they did not polish or clean them, even they packed them with arrow marks. in addition, I also remember they mixed cartons last time. I think the factory management is critical bad, I strongly suggest that we should stop cooperating with the factory. the sooner the better.
