How to use

Use the Tramontina PLENUS cooking knife with a stable cutting board and appropriate grip: pinch the blade near the bolster with the thumb and forefinger for control and wrap the remaining fingers around the handle. Employ smooth, controlled slicing motions for large fruits and vegetables and short, controlled chops for dicing. Keep the tip or the heel of the blade in contact with the cutting board as needed to maintain stability while cutting. After use, wash the knife by hand with warm soapy water, dry it immediately and store it in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge.

Usage recommendations

Avoid cutting on very hard surfaces such as ceramic, glass or stone to prevent premature dulling. Regular honing will help maintain edge performance, and periodic professional sharpening will restore the cutting edge when required. Store the knife to prevent contact with other utensils and follow basic kitchen safety practices when handling sharp blades.
