FAQs
Can I put this knife in the dishwasher?
No, this knife must be hand washed with mild soap and warm water to protect the integrity of the steel and the handle.
How often should I hone the blade?
It is recommended to hone the blade regularly, ideally before or after every major prep session to maintain its sharp edge.
What does full-tang mean?
Full-tang means the metal of the blade extends entirely through the length of the handle, providing superior balance, weight, and durability.
Can this knife be used on glass or stone cutting boards?
No, you should only use this knife on wooden or plastic cutting boards to avoid damaging the razor-sharp edge.
Is the blade suitable for frozen foods?
This knife is designed for slicing meats, vegetables, and fruits; it is not intended for cutting through frozen foods or bones.
Troubleshooting
The blade feels like it is pulling or tearing food rather than slicing.
The edge has likely lost its alignment. Use a honing rod to realign the blade edge.
Small rust spots appearing on the surface.
Ensure the knife is dried immediately after washing and never left to soak in a sink.
Handle feels loose or wobbles.
This is rare for a full-tang knife; check if the handle scales are damaged and contact support if the integrity is compromised.
