Important Notes
While the knife is dishwasher safe for convenience, hand washing with mild detergent is recommended to preserve the blade’s sharpness and finish over time. Always store in a knife block, sheath, or on a magnetic strip to protect the edge and ensure safety. Avoid using on hard surfaces like glass or stone cutting boards, as this may dull the serrated edge prematurely. This product is designed for slicing bread and pastries and is not intended for heavy-duty tasks such as chopping bones or frozen foods. The knife comes ready to use and requires no additional sharpening upon purchase.
