How to use

Hold the knife firmly by the handle, ensuring your fingers are clear of the blade path. Use the tip of the knife for intricate peeling and trimming tasks. When slicing, maintain a steady motion, allowing the sharpness of the blade to do the work without applying excessive downward pressure. Always use a wooden or plastic cutting board to protect the edge of the blade.

Usage recommendations

To maintain the longevity and sharpness of your ZWILLING Gourmet knife, it is recommended to hand wash the tool with mild detergent and dry it immediately. Avoid using the dishwasher, as high temperatures and harsh detergents can damage the blade edge and handle material. Store the knife in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to protect the blade from contact with other metal utensils.
