Care
- Wash by hand with warm water and mild soap, then dry the knife at once. Do not put it in a dishwasher.
- Acuto 440 resists stains but is not immune to them; do not leave the blade wet or soaking.
- Cut on wood or plastic boards, and keep the edge away from frozen food, hard shells and heavy bone.
- Hone between sharpenings with the Glestain hexagonal ceramic honing rod, and store the knife in a guard, a block or a case.
