leaner Ji, I'm sure loads of people have this problem. I also switched to a bigger Karra for a while but it removed hairs so I went back to my old one, if you can find a Sarabloh Karra that is as smooth and flat (not totally circular/tubelike) as possible on the inside it won't remove hair. If the edges are sharp the hair gets cut off, if it's tubelike they "rub" off. I think the size and weight has a big part in the removing of hair.

I'd say get a smooth flat Sarabloh one around 1cm in thickness, not tubelike or with any grooves etc.

lool okay... from my experience and from what other people have said, it is not only sarbloh kareh that do this... the main thing that does is the EDGE of the kara... for instance when ur sleeping (this happened to my brother) and ur wearing a kara with a sharp edge it usually shaves ur arms..thing is, u just need to lightly file and smoothen the edges of the kara. lastly it might also be a good idea to smoothen the bottom. my kara (made from saralbloh) is rounded of, this prevents the whole shaving dilema.

although this is not related, lool i heard a good way to get rid of rust is to leave ur kara in a bowl of diluted viniger, then using steel wool rub of the rust. it gets rid of the rust and provides a shiny finish, for kirpans use fine glass paper, no need to soak in viniger loool it wuld probably look like ur trying to put pogh on the viniger.

anywai, i hope this helped, i talk from experience, so other readers, please feel free to correct me,

From my experience, if the karra is round & still shave the hair. It could be that the karra is heavy. When karra slides down it shaves/breaks the hair with the weight.
