Use

• Always use caution when handling sharp objects.

Care

• Hand-wash with warm water and mild dish soap.
• Rinse thoroughly.
• Dry immediately with soft cloth.
• Do not soak knife in water.
• Use honing steel regularly to maintain cutting edge of blade.
• Sharpen as needed. With regular use and honing, knife should not need sharpening more than once or twice per year.
