Care Instructions
Our Wooden products do require some TLC occasionally. We recommend a light oil from time to time and after much use a light grade sandpaper can be used to smooth any furriness caused by repeated exposure to water.
Washing in mild detergent and thorough drying is all that is needed otherwise.
Our wooden bladed knives will last for many uses without sharpening, but if used with ‘wetter’ food they may need this more frequently. Again, a light grade sandpaper, or a simple emery board can be used along the edge to re-sharpen. Follow this with a food safe oil or an approved wood care wax and it’s ready for use again.
