How to use

Hold the knife using a pinch grip with thumb and index finger on the blade near the bolster for better control and stability. Use the curved front of the blade for rocking motions when slicing herbs, vegetables or proteins, and use the straight back area for up-and-down chopping where appropriate. Keep the full blade engaged on the cutting surface and use a stable cutting board. Regularly sharpen the blade from bolster to tip to maintain cutting performance and follow standard safety precautions while handling and storing the knife.

Recommendations

To maintain edge life and ensure safe use, clean the knife by hand with mild detergent and dry immediately; avoid dishwashers and abrasive cleaners. Store the knife in a block, on a magnetic strip or with a blade guard to protect the edge. Regular honing and occasional professional or guided sharpening will keep the blade performing well for everyday kitchen tasks.
