To ensure long-lasting sharpness and durability, we recommend washing the knife by hand and drying it thoroughly after use. Avoid the dishwasher and harsh cleaning agents. Use a wooden or plastic cutting board to protect the blade.
Regular sharpening is recommended to maintain optimal sharpness, and the included sharpening guide can help you achieve the best results.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
