Cleaning and Maintaining the Blade

1. Immediate Rinse: After use, rinse the knife under warm water to remove any food particles or residue. Avoid letting it soak in water to prevent corrosion.
2. Gentle Hand Wash: Use a mild dish soap and a soft sponge or cloth to gently clean the blade. Avoid abrasive pads or harsh chemicals, as they can damage the blade’s finish.
3. Drying: Thoroughly dry the knife with a soft towel immediately after washing to prevent water spots and corrosion.
4. Storage: Store the knife in its black leather sheath to protect the blade and maintain its sharpness. Alternatively, use a knife block or magnetic strip.
