Care Instructions
Care Instructions
Your handmade blade deserves proper care to last a lifetime. Follow these tips to preserve its beauty and performance:
🔪 General Care:
- Keep the blade clean and dry after use
- Apply a thin coat of oil (mineral, camellia, or gun oil) regularly
- Avoid prolonged exposure to water or moisture
🔥 Damascus & High Carbon Steel:
- These steels are not stainless — they require extra care
- Store in a cool, dry place with low humidity
- Wipe with an oiled cloth before storing
🧊 Stainless Steel Blades:
- More resistant to rust, but still benefit from proper care
- Clean with a soft cloth and mild soap — dry immediately
- Light oiling helps preserve the finish and smoothness
Never place your blade in a dishwasher or soak it in water. Proper care ensures long-term durability and appearance.
