Use & maintenance
Always wash the knife by hand and dry it carefully immediately to preserve the quality of the steel and the wooden handle. Do not use abrasive sponges and do not let the knife soak in water. Avoid chopping bones or very hard products to prevent damage to the blade. Regular sharpening with a whetstone, honing steel, or manual knife sharpener helps keep the knife sharp for a long time. Treat the wooden handle regularly with food-safe mineral oil to maintain its natural shine.
