Care
Messermeister knives are not dishwasher safe. Hand wash with warm water and a mild detergent, then dry immediately, and clean the blade right away after cutting acidic or salty foods. Messermeister recommends a light coat of food-safe mineral oil or wood cream on the olive wood handle every few weeks. Because olive and acacia are natural woods, the grain and color of each handle and block will vary.
