Usage Note
PROPER KNIFE CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
High-carbon steel knives require proper care to maintain performance. While our stainless steel blades resist corrosion, they need immediate cleaning after use. Always hand wash your Japanese chef knife and dry completely with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and maintain the blade’s razor-sharp edge.
PROTECT YOUR KNIFE BLADE – AVOID HARD SURFACES
Preserve your knife’s sharpness by avoiding bones, frozen foods, hard vegetables, and tough materials. Cutting on proper surfaces like wood or plastic cutting boards prevents blade damage, chips, and dulling. This extends your knife’s lifespan and maintains optimal cutting performance.
HAND WASH ONLY – NEVER USE DISHWASHER
To prevent blade damage and handle deterioration, always hand wash your professional chef knife. Dishwashers can cause rusting, dulling, and handle damage. Gently wash with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and dry immediately to maintain your knife’s premium quality and performance.
SAFE KNIFE STORAGE – PROTECT BLADES AND FAMILY
Store your sharp kitchen knives in a secure knife block, magnetic strip, or blade guards. Keep knives away from children and in designated storage areas. Proper storage protects the cutting edge, prevents accidents, and maintains blade sharpness for years of professional cooking performance.
