How to use

Use the knife with a gentle sawing motion when working with bread or soft produce to allow the serrations to cut through without excessive pressure. For tomatoes and similar items, start at the top and move the blade forward and backward with light, even strokes to preserve the structure of the fruit. Keep the blade clean and dry after use to maintain hygiene and prevent staining. Store the knife in a knife block, drawer insert or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge and avoid contact with other utensils.

Usage recommendations

For best results, avoid using this serrated knife on very hard or frozen foods; use dedicated bread or chef's knives for those tasks. Periodically inspect the edge and, if necessary, have the serrations professionally serviced to restore optimal performance. Hand washing and immediate drying are recommended to preserve the finish and handle condition.
