Care Instructions

1. Conscientious Cleaning: After each use, it's important to wash your knives by hand with water and mild dish detergent. Dry them carefully afterward to prevent potential damage and staining.

2. The right cutting surface: To prolong the life of your knives, it is recommended to use wooden or plastic cutting surfaces. Avoid glass or metal pads as they can wear down the blades faster.

3. Proper cutting technique: Be sure to wield the knife safely and efficiently to avoid accidents and keep the blade sharp longer. Hold the knife so that it rests optimally on the cutting surface and avoid abrupt, sideways bending.

4. Careful storage: Store your knives in such a way that they cannot be damaged and do not pose a danger. Use a knife block, special magnetic strips, or a drawer with suitable compartments.

5. Regular sharpening and oiling: To maintain the cutting performance of your knives, you should sharpen them continuously. Use suitable sharpening stones or knife sharpeners for this purpose. Occasional treatment with food-grade oil also protects against moisture and rust.

Why the closing sale?

After a lifetime at the fire, I’m hanging up my hammer.

To say thank you, my remaining Damascus knives are up to 70% off.

When these are gone, the forge goes quiet—no restock.

Arigatō for keeping the flames alive all these years.

— Shigeo Tanaka (田中 重雄)
