A road dispute on Friday afternoon (June 15) turned violent after the driver of a Singapore-registered Honda brandished a weapon and allegedly shattered the side mirrors of another motorist's car. In a phone interview, Stomp contributor Jeck told Stomp that he had been driving from Malaysia to Singapore and was past the Johor Bahru Customs, Immigration, and Quarantine Complex (CIQ) at about 2.10pm when another white Honda SJH8936L attempted to cut into his lane.

The Honda driver who had moved ahead of Jeck then stopped his vehicle and … [Read more...] about Singapore driver who pulled out ‘knife’ in dispute with Malaysian driver arrested

In a YouTube video, knife maker Walter Sorrells says the knife steel is more of a “tune up” tool between sharpenings that can make a knife cut better by scratching up the edge and raising “microscopic teeth” along the blade. But overuse will round the edge too much and will require more sharpening on a stone-like surface.With that in mind, we tried some hacks … [Read more...] about How to sharpen a knife with household objects
