Cutler's services in high demand before Aidiladha
KUALA LUMPUR: Cutler Ahmad Nazari Abdullah said demand for his knife and machete sharpening services skyrockets in the lead-up to Hari Raya Aidiladha.
The father of five from Seremban said that two years ago, he received more than 100 blades for sharpening ahead of Aidiladha.
"Those who want their blades sharpened usually come before Ramadan for Hari Raya Aidilfitri, and just before Aidiladha. Most of my orders come during Aidiladha," said Ahmad Nazari.
He added that there are various methods of sharpening, and if not done correctly, blades can quickly become dull again. He is happy to share his knowledge of blade sharpening with anyone keen to learn.
"When I used the knife, I could feel its sharpness. Ahmad Nazari's sharpening methods are perfect for slicing meat. I am very satisfied with his work," said customer Mohd Fauzan Azri Jaafar.
Besides sharpening, Nazari also takes commissions to craft machete handles and sheaths, a skill he learned from his late brother-in-law.
