Troubleshooting
Knives appear dull after a short period.
Ensure you are using a proper cutting technique and a suitable cutting board. Sharpen the knives regularly using a whetstone or knife sharpener. Hand washing and immediate drying also help maintain the edge.
Water spots or discoloration on blades.
Dry the knives thoroughly immediately after hand washing. Avoid leaving them wet or in standing water. If spots appear, a gentle polish with a stainless steel cleaner might help.
