I purchased some missousu and itc-100 a few weeks ago and it just finally came in the mail today. the one corner of the box was damaged, so before opening i grabbed my camera to document everything. I ordered one pint of ITC-100. It was sent to me in these two 1/2 pint containers, sealed with MASKING TAPE. I was expecting the factory packaging, not this hack job. Beings that this brown liquid has leaked out of both the containers(there is still some in there, but by the looks of everything, a lot has leaked) I am not sure if the ITC-100 is still good to use, or if that liquid is a necessary component.
As it stands, I am NOT pleased whatsoever with Ellis Custom Knifeworks, whom I ordered the materials from. I left a message on their answering machine, and I will wait for a phone call.
The missousu i ordered seems to be in good shape.
