Five quick checks on a teak mushroom keychain
Retailers unpacking a carton should open a handful at random. Each check takes seconds:
- The curved 4 cm blade swings out without grinding and stops in line with the 6 cm teak handle.
- Folded, the point rests inside the handle instead of poking past the wood.
- The bristles are dense, evenly trimmed and stay put when given a gentle tug.
- The pins sit flush with the teak, and the chain links and ring are fully closed.
- The honey-brown grain varies a little from piece to piece, which is normal for natural wood.
Stock that passes gives shoppers the right first impression of keychains made in Pakistan.
