Knife Care Instructions To maintain the beauty and performance of your forged steel knives: Hand Wash Only Use warm water and mild dish soap. Avoid dishwashers or soaking the knives—moisture and detergents can damage both blade and handle. Dry Immediately Dry thoroughly with a clean towel after washing to prevent rust and water spots. Oil the Blade Lightly coat the blade with food-safe mineral oil after drying, especially if storing for an extended period. This protects the high-carbon steel from corrosion. Store Safely Use a knife block, magnetic strip, or leather sheath. Avoid storing loosely in drawers to prevent damage or injury. Sharpen as Needed Maintain a sharp edge with a whetstone or professional sharpening tool. Occasional honing will keep performance at its peak. Avoid Hard Surfaces Do not use on bones, frozen foods, or hard surfaces (like glass or stone) to prevent chipping or dulling.
