Specifications

Damascus steel blades are best hand-washed right after use and dried thoroughly, avoiding prolonged exposure to moisture, to preserve both the edge and the layered steel pattern. Using a wooden or plastic board instead of hard surfaces extends the interval between sharpenings. For education and healthcare facility kitchens, this kind of tool can be listed among kitchen equipment for a budget institution's food-service unit as part of equipment tender purchasing.
