This pizza axe/cutter is exactly as pictured. Shipping was fast and the packaging was first rate. Quality for the price is above average. The axe blade came oiled and wrapped in cellophane/plastic wrap. When we used a towel to wipe the oil off the blade, the ink/dye that was used for the black recesses of the blade wiped off. It was an old white towel that is now black. We let the blade dry out over a week and are still wiping dye off the blade. I will now have to remove all of the ink/dye to use this pizza cutter for what it is marketed for.
