FAQ

Can I put my knife in the dishwasher?

No, the dishwasher damages the cutting edge and can cause the blade to rust. Wash by hand and dry immediately.

Can the blade rust?

Yes, if the steel isn’t 100% stainless or if the knife is left damp. To avoid this: rinse it, dry it straight away, and don’t leave it to soak.

Which board should I use?

Wood or food-grade plastic. Avoid glass, stone and marble: they dull the blade very quickly.

Is this knife ambidextrous?

Yes, the grind is symmetrical (50/50).
