    are you looking for branded chopsticks?

    • brainactive on 29/12/2022 - 19:57

      Yes, I'm considering something like the Hiware fibreglass ones. But not sure where to get them in Australia (the ones on Amazon AU are fake).

        I have seen the ones on Amazon AU, and was wondering how you could tell they were fake?

    Two options, single-use wood, or washable fake-ivory plastic. What "quality" is lacking for you?

      Plastic is not good for high temperatures so I'm thinking either metal or fibreglass

      Bamboo or wood is harder to clean and can get dirty over time

    Maybe try these?
    They are based in Melbourne.

    Do you live near one of Muji's five Australian retail stores?

    although traditional bamboo chopsticks are used by the Chinese for I don’t even know how long. But for hygiene and durability I would actually recommend a Korean stainless steel chopstick(just the normal round ones), it does feel a bit heavier on the hand. But its really not a big deal, and I don’t see anyone can actually break these, or it just starting to lose its usability overtime.
    And value wise its pretty good too, unless you want a old Japanese guy that hand makes the thing for three month, it would generally be pretty cheap. You could just grab the cheapest you can find really, as I don’t think the different price tag would really mean a different thing.

      From doing brief research, it seems there are a few different type: bamboo, metal, fibreglass. Seems like fibreglass is durable (like metal) without being heavy and metallic tasting. Would this be the optimal choice in terms of quality?

      • Clipzero on 30/12/2022 - 09:53

        I actually haven’t try on of this, but they look just as durable and safe, aside from the metallic taste. I think they just come down too preferences and feel, great find!

        I'm just showing you how it looks like as there is nothing on Daiso AU website.
