Grammatically, this seems fine. The only problem is that I got confused with
the change of subject. I recommend that you write in {taj} after
{jejHa'choH}. Otherwise, it looks like the person using the knife is the one
getting dull. Either that, of say {jejHa'choHmoH} and assume (or write) that
the subject is the person using the knife.
