Knife Care & Maintenance

Maintain your Damascus knife's peak condition by following these guidelines:

• Wipe the blade clean and dry immediately after use to prevent moisture damage; avoid soaking in water.
• Apply food-grade mineral or camellia oil regularly to preserve the steel’s patina and corrosion resistance.
• Store the knife in its leather sheath or another dry environment to keep it protected.
• Sharpen using a whetstone with 1000–3000 grit to retain the precise edge.
• Hand wash only—avoid dishwashers to protect materials and blade integrity.
• Periodically re-oil the stag horn handle to maintain its natural luster and durability.

Over time, the Damascus steel develops a distinctive patina that both enhances its character and strengthens its resistance to rust.
