It took 10 minutes to unwrap these and remove the tape on each handkerchief.  I tried using a scissors and, of course, ruined one of them by cutting it.  Going back to trying to remove the tape by hand took all the time and energy.  I would never buy them again.  If you use them in a work situation you had better plan on ironing them each time because they look terrible coming out of the dryer.  Luckily I am retired so I don't care much about that.
