• Always wash after use and dry immediately.
• Store the knife out of the sheath and only place it inside the sheath when transporting.
• Use a wooden or synthetic cutting board and store it in a dedicated holder, separate from other cutlery to avoid damaging the edge.
• Avoid procedures that may damage the edge.
