Cleaning & Care Instructions

Proper care will maintain your Berlinger Haus Utility Knife in excellent condition, ensuring superior performance and lasting beauty.

Before First Use

• Rinse the knife with warm, soapy water to remove any factory residue.

• Dry immediately with a soft cloth before storage.

After Each Use

1. Hand wash with warm water, mild detergent, and a soft sponge.

2. Avoid soaking or leaving the knife in water for extended periods.

3. Rinse thoroughly and dry immediately with a clean towel to prevent water spots or corrosion.

4. Avoid using abrasive pads, metal brushes, or harsh detergents, which can dull the blade and damage the polished finish.

Sharpening & Maintenance

• Maintain sharpness using a whetstone, honing rod, or professional sharpener.

• Sharpen at a consistent 15–20° angle for the best cutting edge.

• Regular honing between sharpening sessions will help preserve the blade’s alignment and precision.

• Store safely in a knife block, magnetic strip, or protective sheath to avoid damage or injury.

Dishwasher Use

• Not recommended.
  Although stainless steel is durable, exposure to harsh dishwasher detergents and high heat can dull the blade and cause spotting or corrosion over time.
  For optimal longevity, always hand wash and dry immediately.

Usage Tips

• Use only on wooden or plastic cutting boards to protect the blade.

• Avoid contact with hard surfaces such as glass, granite, or metal.
