Care Instructions - Preserving Your Investment

Daily Care: Hand wash with mild soap and warm water immediately after use. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent water spots and maintain the handle's integrity.

Storage: Store in a knife block, on a magnetic strip, or in a protective sheath. Never store loose in drawers where the blade can contact other utensils.

Maintenance: Hone regularly with a honing rod to maintain edge alignment. Professional sharpening recommended 1-2 times per year depending on usage frequency.

What to Avoid: Never use dishwashers (damages both blade and handle), never cut on glass/ceramic/stone surfaces (dulls edge), never use for prying or twisting motions (can chip blade).

With proper care, your Amaterasu Damascus bunka kiritsuke will become a cherished kitchen companion, combining Japanese craftsmanship and modern design for decades of reliable performance.
