Helpfulness
The fondouk de forgerons (metalworkers souk) itself is closed at the moment (I assume for restoration)and it's entrance bricked up. Nearby there are many shops where metalworkers of various descriptions work. Seemed to me like an ideal opportunity to get a bit of an edge put un the old Swiss Army knife. Since both blades were fairly dull, they needed a short go on a grinding wheel followed by a session on an unbelievably worn whetstone (clamped firmly in an English vice). One dinar each blade, and now I can sharpen my perncils satisfactorily.
Had I got this done in England, I would probably have taken it to an ironmongers who would have sent it off somewhere and the whole process would have taken over a week.
