How to use

Hold the handle firmly with a secure grip and position the blade at the desired cutting angle.

Apply even pressure and let the blade do the work to maintain consistent slices. Clean and dry the knife after each use to preserve edge condition and hygiene.

Usage recommendations

Regularly hone the edge with a sharpening steel and perform periodic professional or home sharpening to maintain cutting performance. Store the knife in a protective sheath, block or magnetic strip to avoid damage to the blade and reduce risk during handling. Avoid cutting on very hard surfaces like ceramic or stone to preserve the edge.
