After watching one of Wootz' knife sharpening videos, I ordered a roll of the Elastoplast heavy tape he uses to protect his knife blades from scratches. It finally arrived from the UK. Very nice stuff; worth the wait.
I have no problems with the product itself, although shipping first aid tape from the UK to the US doesn't seem logistically inefficient. The tape is made in South Africa. The name has been changed from Elastoplast to Tensoplast. I look forward to scratch free knives. Thanks, Wootz!
