How do I care for my knife?
Our knives are made from quality materials and should last if you take good care of them. Following please find a few guidelines:
- Hand wash and dry immediately after use.
- Do not put it in a dishwasher as it might damage the high-carbon steel and handles.
- Do not leave in water for an extended period of time.
- Hone your straight fine edge blade regularly.
- Sharpen your straight fine edge blade as needed on a sharpening rod (diamond or ceramic), whetstone, or similar quality sharpening tool.
- To maintain the beauty and integrity of all Pakkawood handles, please rub them with clear mineral oil as needed. Do not leave them wet or place them in a dishwasher.
