Care:

Carbon steel knives require immediate cleaning and thorough drying after each use to prevent rust. Hand-wash with warm soapy water, never use a dishwasher, and regularly apply food-safe mineral oil or camellia oil to the blade to protect it. A natural patina will develop over time, which helps protect the blade from corrosion. Store securely in a knife block, magnetic strip, or sheath.

Acidic Foods: Rinse immediately after cutting citrus, tomatoes, or onions to prevent discoloration.

Maintenance: Use wooden or plastic cutting boards; avoid glass, granite, steel, and bamboo. Use a ceramic honing rod regularly to maintain the edge.

Do not use for cutting bones, frozen food, or extremely hard items to avoid chipping.
