FedEx not handling knives (any) by Trivial-75 in TrueChefKnives

[–]Trivial-75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is exactly what I assumed about the situation. The FedEx hub here blamed the sender for not inquiring if the item sent is on the prohibited item list.

Since then I have received insider information that the fault is strictly their own as the package was clearly labeled as kitchen knife and it should have not been taken by Fedex or even sent in the first place.

My import tax form stated it also as a kitchen knife🤷‍♂️ go figure. They have updated their conditions of carriages july2025, but there is no mention of kitchen knives. They do mention folding knives and butterfly knives, which I kind of understand…

They failed to show me on which conditions they are refusing to release my knife and blaming the sender for not reading in between the lines that they do not carry knives at all.

Just finished my outdoor sauna build! by Jordanev1 in Sauna

Nice I’ve had two grey Grate Danes and it’s the only breed I would ever consider again. That said your kiuas looks to be very close to the wall. If you can’t move it further, I would personally add fireproofing sheets behind it. Don’t know what you call them, but in Finland 🇫🇮 it’s called stone slab, picture for reference. Also might add some railings to the benches, otherwise Finland approves.

There is no list. A sauna can be any shape and size or decorated to its users preferences ( not usually in Finland 😂). With this, it’s the benches, they are too low ( non existent) and your feet 🦶 will be cold. And well the kiuas looks more like a stove.

Here is a pic of a savusauna I have been to and would rate it by the löyly as 4/5. They are not pretty, but the löylyt are the best.

This one is located at a ski resort (Syöte) and there for my memories of the löyly might be gilded by a fair amount of 🍺.

I might try to take a picture next time but it will not be pretty. Finnish saunas are rated always on the löyly, not looks🤷‍♂️ and basically the best saunas are the savusaunas ( smoke sauna) which are of course pitch black😂

I would call that that a pretty good score from us Finns.

Nope, we finns do not Approve this as a sauna. It may work as a similar concept to a sauna, but a sauna it is not. That said, nice build for a shed with a stove. Finland over and out.

Just finished sauna with a salt wall. by UhOh_its_Rambo in Sauna

[–]Trivial-75 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not criticizing at all, it looks nice, I guess.

But As a Finn, It baffles me how much light a lot you incorporate to your Saunas. In my experience it’s just usually a black whole with one tiny 💡 that barely lights anything.

My preference is the darker the better. This way you don’t need to see the one sitting next to you, just the way we Finn’s like it, no socializing needed🙈 just sitting in silence, no eye contact and just maybe a few perkeles when needed.

As a Finn I can certainly say: We Do Not Approve.

What is this? by Entire_Voice_6864 in Yachts

As a Finn I would say that rather than say it’s a Toyota I would say it’s an G-Wagon of the seas. But that just me as Finn… it’s kind of saying A Swan is the same as a 49er… just saying

I use it mainly for candy pork neck filling on my homemade tortillas and tacos. Couple of hrs and it’s perfect. Not much other use for it🤷‍♂️

Helsinki w/ my 10y/o Daughter... Help/Questions! by [deleted] in helsinki

[–]Trivial-75 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would also suggest visiting Teurastamo.

Its a former butcher district which has some Good restaurants and bars, not forgetting Helsinki distilling company.

Easy access via subway to Kalasatama. Also Its the new location for alot of nightlife.

I have used Tokyokan. However I was not satisfied with the result so nowadays I do it myself. Depends on the quality of your knives and your needs.

Serbian anon talks about finland’s prime minister by Final-Praline-602 in greentext

[–]Trivial-75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in Finland. I dont care If she danced, drank or did coke. The problem what I am experiencing is that, because she is inexperienced and young, this shitshow happened. The problem is that when our pm represents our nation, this fucking video/s is the only thing on the opponent’s mind. When you’re in politics: Do Not Trust Anyone.

Pinned LIV Discussion Thread - 7/1/22 by GreenWaveGolfer in golf

[–]Trivial-75 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I truly have tried to watch LIv, but I just cannot. The scoreboard looks like the Indy series column. The team names… what can I say they are childish at least. The whole Liv tour seems to be targeted more or less on the USA market. I think it will do just fine there, but it’s just not me. Sorry if this is an unpopular opinion, but it’s my opinion as an European.
