Tips for care and use:

• To maintain the wooden handle's longevity, regular maintenance with oils, waxes, or conditioners is recommended. Before oiling, ensure the knife handle is clean and dry by using a moist cloth. Apply a couple of drops of your chosen treatment, typically enough to be rubbed in with just your fingertip. It's crucial to generate some heat while rubbing to aid in breaking down any present waxes and to facilitate absorption into the wood fibers;
• Before using the knife for the first time, wash it with dishwashing detergent;
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners when washing.
