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.
- Avoid using cleaners containing bleach and citrus extracts.
- 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 designed to sharpen at 16-degree angle, or have them sharpened by a professional.
- Sharpen serrated knives at home using sharpener specifically designed for serrated blade, or have them sharpened by a professional.
- Store knives in safe place to protect edges and prevent injury.
