Why does the edge of our knives last longer?
Our knives are designed with:
- High-end steel (sintered steel, Damascus steel) ensuring excellent edge retention.
- Optimized heat treatment (60 HRC) for exceptional durability.
- Protective anti-corrosion coatings (Cerakote) to prolong edge performance.
How to maintain your knife?
- Hand wash immediately after use.
- Dry immediately to avoid moisture.
- Sharpen regularly with a suitable stone (grit 800-1000).
- Store your knife in a sheath or on a suitable stand.
Why never put a knife in the dishwasher?
- Heat and harsh chemicals damage the blade.
- Risk of damaging the handle.
- The edge dulls faster.
How to prevent rust and wear?
- Clean and dry immediately after use.
- Apply a thin layer of mineral oil on the blade and handle from time to time.
- Store your knives in a dry place.
How to properly sharpen your knife?
- Use a sharpening stone with an appropriate grit (usually between 800 and 1000).
- Maintain a constant angle during sharpening (about 20°).
- Finish with a light polishing using leather or a fine stone for a razor-sharp edge.
Why never use glass or marble boards?
- These hard surfaces dull the edge very quickly.
- Prefer wooden boards to preserve your knife.

Choosing and maintaining your knife well ensures its performance and longevity. Adopt these good practices and you will enjoy your cutting tool for a long time, whether in the kitchen, outdoors, or to enrich a collection.
