What Customers Ask About This Product
Is it dishwasher safe?
No, handwash these knives to protect the blade edge and finish.
What chopping board should I use?
Wood or soft plastic boards keep the blades sharp for longest. Avoid hard surfaces like glass, stone, metal or very hard bamboo, which can dull or damage the edge.
How often should I use the sharpener?
Regularly, to quickly and easily hone the blades back to their proper edge.
Can the sharpener go in the dishwasher?
The ceramic wheel can be removed and washed in the dishwasher to prevent a build-up of sharpener dust, but the body itself should be wiped clean by hand.
In our experience...
A cook's knife is genuinely the one to start with if you're only buying one. Its curved blade handles a two-step chop and rock action across meat, vegetables, herbs and even crushing garlic.
A paring knife earns its place for detail work. It's built for small, intricate jobs and for peeling or scraping fruit and vegetables directly in the hand, rather than general chopping.
The chopping board you use genuinely affects blade life. Hard surfaces like glass or stone dull an edge far faster than wood or soft plastic, regardless of how good the knife itself is.
A 15 degree Japanese-style edge is a specific sharpening choice. It's a finer angle than many Western knives, which is part of what gives these a precise, clean cut.

Care & Use Instructions
Washing the knives: Rinse to remove food traces, then wash gently in warm soapy water with a soft cloth. No need to soak. Dry each knife thoroughly and individually, and apply a non-abrasive metal polish for the best finish.
Chopping boards: Use wood or soft plastic boards to keep the blades sharp for longest. Avoid glass, stone, metal or very hard bamboo.
Cleaning the sharpener: Lift the clear guard off periodically and wipe inside with a damp microfibre cloth, then dry thoroughly before replacing. The ceramic wheel can be removed and washed in the dishwasher to prevent sharpener dust building up.
