How to Clean and Care for Your Damascus Chef Knife:

1. Hand Wash Only: Clean the blade immediately after each use with warm water, mild dish soap, and a soft sponge. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or steel wool to prevent scratching the blade’s surface.
2. Dry Thoroughly: After washing, dry the knife immediately with a soft cloth or towel to prevent moisture damage and rust.
3. Oil the Blade: Apply a thin layer of food-safe oil (such as mineral oil) to the blade occasionally to protect it from rust, especially if you live in a humid environment.
4. Store Properly: Always store the knife in its vegetable-tanned leather sheath or a knife block to prevent the blade from getting damaged. Avoid storing in drawers where it may come in contact with other utensils.
5. Sharpen as Needed: Regularly hone the blade using a sharpening steel, and sharpen the edge when necessary to maintain its razor-sharp performance. For best results, use a whetstone designed for high-carbon steels.

Following these steps will help maintain the beauty and performance of your Damascus Chef Knife for years to come.
