To ensure the knife's long-lasting sharpness and quality, we recommend washing it by hand and avoiding the dishwasher. The knife should not be used to cut bones or frozen food, as this can damage the edge. Store the knife in a safe place to avoid damage and rust.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
