Essential Daily Care

The foundation of knife care begins with daily maintenance. Every professional chef knows that the moments after using your knife are crucial. Here's what your daily knife care routine should include:

• Immediate hand washing after each use with warm water and mild soap
• Thorough drying with a soft, clean cloth
• Safe storage in a knife roll or magnetic strip
• Use of proper cutting surfaces (wood or high-grade plastic)

For those who own our Damascus steel knives, like the Aurora and Knox collections, your daily routine should also include a quick wipe-down with a clean, dry cloth to maintain the beautiful pattern.

The Art of Knife Cleaning

Proper cleaning is an art form in itself. Start with warm water and gentle dish soap, cleaning your knife immediately after use to prevent any food residue from drying on the blade. Here's what you should NEVER do with your premium knives:

• Place them in the dishwasher
• leave them in a sink (This is very unsafe)
• Soak them in water
• Use abrasive cleaners
• Leave them wet or unattended
