How to use

Hold the knife with a firm but relaxed grip using the ergonomic handle; position your other hand to guide ingredients while keeping fingertips safely curled. Use a stable cutting board and move the blade in a controlled slicing or rocking motion appropriate to the ingredient. Clean the knife after each use with warm water and mild detergent, then dry thoroughly to maintain the blade surface. Keep the cutting edge sharp with regular honing and occasional professional or appropriate home sharpening.

Usage recommendations

For long-term performance, avoid cutting on very hard surfaces such as ceramic or glass, and do not use the knife to pry or open containers. Store the knife in a block, on a magnetic strip or in a sheath to protect the edge. Regular honing will preserve cutting efficiency; sharpen the blade when honing no longer restores a clean cutting edge.
