Sharpening a knife keeps it sharp, so if it loses its sharpness, sharpen it before use.
There are natural whetstones and artificial whetstones for whetstones, so please consult a specialty store to purchase them.
We recommend going to a specialty store for polishing and repair once every 1-2 years.
| How to sharpen |
In the case of a double-edged blade, sharpen the front and back the same number of times.
In the case of a single-edged blade, please sharpen the surface of the blade from the tip to the base. If the back of the blade feels rough to the touch (burr edge), lightly sharpen the back side 2-3 times until the burr edge disappears.
| Handling Precautions |
A wooden cutting board is recommended.
Please do not use it for anything other than cooking.
