Cleaning & Maintenance Tips:

1. Clean the Blade Regularly: After each use, wipe the blade with a dry cloth to remove dirt, moisture, and debris. For tougher stains, gently use warm water and mild soap, but ensure the blade is thoroughly dried afterward to prevent rust.
2. Oil the Blade: Apply a thin coat of light oil (mineral or gun oil) to protect the 1095 high carbon steel from corrosion. This should be done every few uses, or if the blade has been exposed to moisture.
3. Handle Care: Clean the ashwood and leather-wrapped handle with a soft, damp cloth. For the leather portion, occasionally apply a leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracks.
4. Sheath Care: Since the sheath is made from vegetable-tanned leather, keep it dry and away from direct heat or moisture. You can also apply a leather conditioner or cream to preserve its quality.
5. Sharpening: Sharpen the blade using a sharpening stone or a fine file. Maintain the edge to ensure optimal performance and durability.
