- To avoid rust, never store the knife in a damp place or in a dirty condition. Please wash the knife immediately after cutting pickled vegetables or citrus fruits to avoid damaging the blade.
- If you use the knife frequently, we recommend sharpening it every 3 months to maintain its sharpness.
- Wave blade knives such as bread knives must not be sharpened.
