MetroKitchen.com recommends washing your knives by hand and immediately drying them. Do not let your knives soak in water.
Avoid cleaners containing bleach or citrus extracts, as they may stain the surface of your knives.
For longer lasting knives, cut on a wooden cutting board. Cutting on hard surfaces such as stone, metal or glass quickly dulls blades.
To maintain a sharper cutting edge, use a sharpening steel, preferably each time after using your knives.
It's best to store your Shun knife so the edge and your fingers are protected, preferably in a block or in-drawer knife tray.
We suggest using a meat cleaver when you need to cut through bone, otherwise you can damage your knife blade.
Shun knives don't need frequent sharpening because they are made from 32 extremely durable layers of stainless steel.
