CARE & MAINTENANCE

DO

✅ Regularly maintain your knife’s sharpness. A fine honing rod, leather strop, or +3k grit water stones will help keep the edge in peak condition.
 

✅ If the edge starts feeling too thick over time, don’t hesitate to thin it out. A well-maintained blade performs at its best.
 

✅ Protect wooden handles by occasionally applying natural oils like boiled linseed oil or hardwax oil to seal out moisture. (Not necessary for synthetic or stabilized handles.)
 

✅ After use, rinse your knife with clean water and dry it thoroughly.
 

✅ Appreciate your knife, enjoy using it, and handle it with respect.

DON'T

❌ Never use your knife on hard surfaces such as ceramic, glass, stone, or metal.
 

❌ Avoid storing your knife loosely in a drawer with other utensils—it can damage the blade.
 

❌ Never put your knife in the dishwasher, no matter how messy it gets.
 

❌ The blade is thin and made from hard steel—cut with care. Forcing it through tough materials or jamming it into cutting boards can lead to chipping or damage.
 

❌ Since your knife is crafted from high-carbon steel, it is prone to rust. Don’t leave it wet or exposed to food residue for extended periods.
 

❌ Your knife is a precision tool meant for cutting food—don’t use it for anything else. Misuse can compromise its integrity.
 

❌ Most importantly, always prioritize safety when handling your knife.
