Care on this site
Hand wash and dry immediately. Use wood, rubber, or plastic boards — not glass, stone, or ceramic. Skip bones, frozen food, and twisting the edge out of dense produce. Store with a saya, edge guard, or magnetic strip. Sharpen on a whetstone or with a qualified service; pull-through gadgets are a poor fit for thin Japanese geometry.
