ABOUT "GAUCHO KNIVES"
Gaucho knife is not a company. I am a brazilian artisan cutlery ("old school") that seeks to work with good recycled materials. My theme is the gaucho & cowboy´s cutlery: rustic, strong and durable knives, ready for heavy use and 100% unique and exclusive.

Caring for Your Carbon Steel Knife
• After using your knife take the time to wipe off the blade with a rag or cloth. This very simple step will stop most rust from forming. Its also important to note that finger prints can cause carbon steel to rust.
• Every so often put a coat of your favorite oil on the knife. It is especially important that if you use your knife in food prep that you use a food safe oil like mineral oil.
• Lastly, over time you may notice your blade changing color. This is a natural process during which the steel gains a patina from normal use and age. A patina not only adds character to your knife but helps protect your carbon steel from rust which might cause pits. Many people find a satisfaction in watching how their patina develops over time while others “force” a patina in order to gain a more uniform coloration. Of course for those that like to keep their knife looking new a patina can be easily polished off.
