Care:
Wash and dry with a soft sponge, and safely store after use. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.
Cutting Surface:
Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.
Sharpening:
We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.
This is my second knife from Burrfection, and both a great experiences. I am not an expert and bought this as a gift to my wife; the knife looks better than the pictures, the blade is beautiful, and it became my wife's favorite knife in the kitchen, the size is perfect, and it is razor sharp. I am looking forward to my next knife.
