Blade Care Tips:
The Aogami Super core delivers excellent cutting performance, but it requires proper maintenance due to its high carbon content. After each use, wash by hand and dry thoroughly. Avoid leaving it wet or storing in humid environments. Periodic oiling with camellia oil or food-grade cooking oil helps prevent rust during long-term storage.
Do not wash in a dishwasher. Avoid contact with acidic foods like citrus and onions for prolonged periods to prevent patina or rusting.
