To preserve the knife's quality, we advise against using a dishwasher. As the blade is not fully stainless, it is important to rinse and dry it thoroughly after use to prevent oxidation.
Maintenance & use
Never cut into bones or frozen items as this may damage the egg. Always wash the knife by hand and dry it thoroughly immediately.
Please note that both the blade and handle can be seriously damaged and broken if the knife is washed in a dishwasher – this also applies to stainless steel and wooden handles.
