FAQ: I see cut rush grass sticking out in some places. Is this defective?

It s not defective. It is a phenomenon known as "Ikire".

Compared to chemical fibers, etc., natural rush grass is more prone to being cut, given it's natural characteristics. There may be cuts resulting from friction in the machine while weaving the fibers, or from dying.

If there are fibers sticking out as shown in the above picture, you can simply cut them using a pair of scissors or nail clippers and use as is.
