    Use & Care

    Use

    • Always use caution when handling sharp objects.
    • Avoid cutting on hard surfaces, such as stone, metal and glass.
    • It is not advisable to use any knife but a meat cleaver to cut through bone, as other blades can be easily damaged.

    Care

    • Hand-wash with warm water and mild detergent.
    • Rinse and dry immediately.
    • Use honing steel regularly to maintain cutting edges of blades.
    • Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing, knives should not need sharpening more than once or twice per year.
    • Sharpen straight-edge knives at home using whetstone or knife sharpener, or have them sharpened by a professional.
    • Sharpen serrated knives at home using sharpener specifically designed for serrated blades, or have them sharpened by a professional.
    • Store knives in safe place to protect edges and prevent injury.
