One thing needs to be said: You imply that we are prejudiced because you are Pakistani. That is not the case.

The fact is that we see tons of cheaply made knives from Pakistan, India, and China. They are junk, often made out of steels that won't even harden. From time to time, we also have people from your country trying to sell damascus or other steels on here. In many cases, they are not even legitimate. It makes us cautious.

Your original post has a link to your web site and we've looked at the merchandise. It's bulk manufactured, not custom. And, to be honest, it closely resembles the junk we have seen imported.

There are fine artisans from many parts of the world - Italy, Germany, Australia, Brazil, Argentina, and so on that post their work on this network. It shouldn't take long to see the difference between their work and a box of 420 stainless steak knives.

I wish you well in your business and hope you sell plenty of utensils. But this is not the right place to sell that kind of merchandise.
