• Care & Maintenance Guide

  • Clean Immediately: After every use, wash the blade by hand with warm water and a mild dish soap. Never soak the knife in water.

  • Dry Thoroughly: Immediately wipe the blade completely dry with a clean, soft cloth. Ensure no moisture remains on the steel or the leather wrapping to prevent oxidation or rust.

  • Oil the Blade: Because this knife is made from high-carbon steel, it is susceptible to rust if not protected. After drying, apply a thin, even coat of food-safe mineral oil or knife-specific oil to the entire blade surface before storing it.

  • Leather Care: Keep the leather sheath and handle wrapping dry. If the leather becomes wet, allow it to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Periodically treat the leather with a quality leather conditioner to keep it supple and prevent cracking.

  • Storage: Always store your knife in a cool, dry environment. Avoid storing the knife inside the leather sheath for long periods, as leather can trap moisture and cause the blade to rust; keep the knife stored separately and use the sheath only for transport.

  • Sharpening: Maintain the razor-sharp edge by using a honing rod or a high-quality sharpening stone periodically. Ensure you maintain the correct angle during sharpening to preserve the blade’s integrity.
