This is made entirely of stainless steel. While it will resist staining and oxidation, it's best to hand wash and dry with a soft sponge or towel to prevent spotting and scratching. Do not use a dishwasher.

Medium - Western Carbon

We recommend hand sharpening on whetstones to a low-medium finish starting around 400 and progressing to around 1000 grit with a monodiachrome strop finish. Gentle use with steel honing rods work well for as-needed edge maintenance. Avoid pull-through sharpeners and non-water-cooled mechanized sharpening. If you have to use a honing rod to be able to use the knife comfortably, it's time to sharpen the knife.
