Care
Kawashima knives are not dishwasher safe. Hand wash with warm water and a mild detergent and dry immediately. The thin, hard edge should be kept off bones, frozen food and glass or stone cutting surfaces. Suncraft, which makes knives in Seki, notes that a brass bolster takes on a patina over time.
