Cleaning and Maintenance:
- Clean After Every Use: After using the blade, especially in outdoor settings, wipe it down with a soft cloth to remove any dirt, moisture, or debris. Ensure no organic material stays on the blade to prevent rust or corrosion.
- Wash by Hand: For deeper cleaning, hand wash the blade with mild soap and warm water. Avoid soaking it in water as prolonged exposure can weaken the materials and finish.
- Dry Thoroughly: Always dry the blade and handle completely before storing it to prevent moisture from causing rust on the steel or damage to the wood and brass components.
- Apply Oil: Periodically apply a thin layer of protective oil to the Damascus steel to prevent oxidation and maintain the blade’s sharpness and finish. Use mineral oil or specialized knife oil for best results.
- Leather Sheath Care: Keep the vegetable-tanned leather sheath dry. Clean it with a leather cleaner and conditioner to maintain its flexibility and longevity.
