The Ultimate Damascus Knife Care Guide

Clean Your Damascus Knives Regularly

• Rinse your Damascus knife under warm water after each use

• Do not use dishwashers to prevent damage to delicate Damascus steel
• Hand-washing in this manner will prolong the knife's lifespan

Gently Dry Your Damascus Knives After Washing

• Always pat dry with a soft towel after washing to prevent water spots and rust formation
• Ensure thorough drying as part of your regular Damascus knife maintenance routine

How to Store Damascus Knives Properly

• Store Damascus knives in a dry, safe place away from moisture and extreme temperatures
• Consider a magnetic knife block holder or wall strip for secure and accessible storage

Sharpen Your Damascus Knives Routinely

• For home cooks using their knives daily, sharpen every two to three months for optimal performance
• Use a whetstone with a grit range of 1000 to 8000 for the unique layered steel construction
• Start with the coarser grit to reshape the edge

• Maintain a consistent angle of 15 to 20 degrees for a sharp and even edge

Handle Your Damascus Knives with Care

• Grip the knife properly for a secure and comfortable hold

Regularly Apply Oil to Your Damascus Knives
