Cheaply made, the blade won't turn with a hammer

The blade was set at the wrong height for shaving. I tried making adjustments with a hammer and the thing didn't budge. Instead of good flakes, I got katsuobushi sawdust. Absolute waste of time and money.

Pros
  • Dishes, bakeware and tools
Cons
  • Out of style

well made, worth the money!

I've been making dashi broth for a while now but I bought pre-sliced mackerel and wanted to up my game so I bought this box of mackerel and a whole mackerel! This involved learning how to set up the blade and how to shave mackerel, which I found fairly easy. I am very satisfied with the quality of the box and the blade! Thanks very much!

Pros
  • Kitchen Utensils
Cons
  • Some Bugs

Works well but a little lower price shows.

The product works well, but only if you know what you are doing. Please note this is not a product defect, I just don't want people to think this is a bad product because they aren't set up correctly. You'll need a mallet (ideally I just have a hammer) to set the blade height exactly where you want it. The quality is good, but looks a bit rough. For those who shave their own katsuobushi but want to save a few bucks I would say this is a good option.

Pros
  • Industrial & Scientific
Cons
  • When in doubt
