Recommendations

Hand wash the knife with mild detergent and dry immediately to preserve the blade finish and prevent corrosion. Store the knife in a knife block, magnetic strip or protective sheath to protect the edge. Regular honing and occasional professional sharpening will maintain cutting performance.
