EDIT: I’ve received enough help to get a washing machine now and will have it on Tuesday. Thanks for the suggestions though.
I’m not having much luck with my mutual aid request for a new washing machine. I’m finding it impossible to wash my clothes by hand. I have very little use of my left arm, as well as issues with my hands. I’m finding i just can’t wring the clothes out by hand, which means i can’t get the laundry disinfectant I have to use, out properly. They’re being left itchy and smelly. Does anyone have any good tips on dealing with this?
It’s just a very thin knife with an edge ground at a low angle. So you tend to slice rather than chop or hack. Cleavers usually have higher angle bevels and thicker blades so there is more material behind the edge to absord impacts and keep chips short.
Very few vegetables are tough enough that a good slicing knife is the wrong tool.
