Dry thoroughly with a towel right away to prevent water spots and corrosion — do not air dry. Never place them in the dishwasher, as high heat and detergents ruin the edge and handle.

Use a ceramic honing rod regularly to maintain the edge. Do not use for cutting bones, frozen food, or extremely hard items to avoid chipping.
