Care Instructions: Hand wash and dry the blade immediately after use rather than letting it soak, and use only wood or soft plastic cutting boards. Avoid bones, frozen foods, or hard rinds, and store the knife in a saya or blade guard between uses. Sharpen on quality water stones to keep the edge at its best.
