CARE OF A DAMASCUS STEEL

  1. Wash in warm soapy water and dry immediately to prevent rust.
  2. Coat the blade with mineral oil before storing it to protect against moisture.
  3. Use vinegar or lemon juice to remove any rust that appears.
  4. Avoid storing knives in leather rolls for extended periods, as leather can retain moisture. If you must use a leather roll, apply a heavy coat of oil to the blade before storing.

By following these tips, you can keep your Damascus steel knife in excellent condition and enjoy its exceptional performance for years to come.
