CARE INSTRUCTIONS

1. Conscientious Cleaning: After each use, it's important to wash your knives by hand with water and mild dish detergent. Dry them carefully afterward to prevent potential damage and staining.

2. The right cutting surface: To prolong the life of your knives, it is recommended to use wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Avoid glass or metal pads as they can wear down the blades faster.

3. Proper cutting technique: Be sure to wield the knife safely and efficiently to avoid accidents and keep the blade sharp longer. Hold the knife so that it rests optimally on the cutting surface and avoid abrupt, sideways bending.

4. Careful storage: Store your knives in such a way that they cannot be damaged and do not pose a danger. Use a knife block, special magnetic strips, or a drawer with suitable compartments.

5. Regular sharpening and oiling: To maintain the cutting performance of your knives, you should sharpen them continuously. Use suitable sharpening stones or knife sharpeners for this purpose. Occasional treatment with food-grade oil also protects against moisture and rust.

Why Our Knives Are Razor Sharp

ALL KNIVES SHARPENED BY HAND

1. Inspection

One of our experienced bladesmiths carefully inspects the knife to ensure it meets our high standards.

2. Sharpening

Our 15° blades are expertly sharpened on a Japanese water stone to guarantee a flawless edge.

3. Polishing

Our meticulous polishing process ensures that our blades achieve the highest level of sharpness and deliver an exceptional cutting experience.

4. Stropping

Stropping on cowhide transforms a knife from rough to smooth by removing tiny metal particles.

5. Testing

Every knife undergoes a rigorous testing process, where its sharpness is evaluated by slicing through paper.
