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, as these can damage the knife's finish and sharpness.
Store the knife in a knife block or with a protective sheath to prevent damage to the blade.
