Care and Use Instructions

Suitable for use on vegetables, fish, poultry and meats.
Only use natural wood or plastic cutting boards. Never use stone, glass or other rigid cutting surfaces.
Hand wash with warm soapy water, rinse clean and dry after each use.
Always apply a small amount of oil after each use. We recommend Tsubaki oil (Japanese Camellia Oil) which has been used for centuries by Japanese knife makers to protect all types of steel.
Avoid prolonged immersion in liquids (water, solvents, etc).
Do not clean in the dishwasher.
Sharpen using a whetstone or a quality knife sharpener.
As this knife is a Japanese style, the blade has been sharpened at a 15 degree angle. This means the edge is sharper and will cut with more precision than a western style 20 degree bevel.
Store your knife in a dry place.
As a minimum, wipe the blade with oil, 3 to 4 times a year to stop rust forming (more often if near water).
