How to care for Damascus knives
- Hand-wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Do not soak the knives or put them in a dishwasher.
- Use a wood or soft plastic cutting board. Avoid cutting bones or frozen food, and avoid glass, ceramic or stone cutting surfaces.
- Store the knives with their edges protected.
- Sharpen when cutting performance declines. How often depends on your use and care. Plain and serrated edges need different sharpening methods. If you are unsure which method to use, contact support@epicureancook.com before sharpening.
