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.

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

The knife is absolutely flawless. Came out of the box extremely sharp and cuts really well. The "fluorinated nonstick coating" however seems more like a gimmick, as I haven't seen it stick anyless than any other knife would.
