Mindful Cutting
Taski knives are known for their easy sharpening and flexible blades, but they should be used with care. Avoid cutting very hard materials such as bones, as this can damage the edge. Always use a cutting board, and do not use the knife on hard surfaces such as metal or stone, which can cause chipping and reduce sharpness.
Maintenance
- Gentle hand-wash only: Avoid dishwashers to help preserve the knife's beauty and longevity.
- Dry promptly: After washing, wipe away moisture right away to keep the knife in excellent condition.
