Care Instructions

To maintain the quality and longevity of your hand-forged artisan chef knife, follow these care tips:

1. Cleaning:
   • Hand Wash Only: Immediately after use, wash the knife with warm, soapy water and a soft sponge. Avoid using abrasive materials that may scratch the blade.
   • Dry Immediately: Thoroughly dry the knife with a soft cloth to prevent moisture from causing rust or tarnish.
2. Storage:
   • Use a Knife Block or Magnetic Strip: Store your knife in a dedicated knife block or on a magnetic strip to protect the blade and prevent accidents. Avoid storing it in a drawer where it may get knocked against other utensils.
3. Sharpening:
   • Regular Maintenance: Keep the blade sharp by honing it regularly with a honing rod. For professional sharpening, consider using a whetstone or seeking assistance from a professional knife sharpener.
4. Avoiding Damage:
   • Do Not Cut on Hard Surfaces: Use a cutting board made of wood or plastic to protect the blade’s edge. Avoid cutting on glass, stone, or ceramic surfaces.
   • Limit Exposure to Moisture: Do not soak the knife in water or leave it in the sink for extended periods, as this can damage the handle and blade.

By following these guidelines, you’ll ensure your hand-forged artisan chef knife remains a reliable companion in your culinary adventures for years to come!
