Using these steak knives is a breeze. Just hold the handle firmly and use the sharp blade to cut through your steak easily. When it comes to cleaning, hand - wash them with mild dish soap and warm water right after use. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh chemicals as they can damage the blade and the handle. After washing, dry them thoroughly with a soft cloth to prevent rust. Store the knives in the provided etched wooden storage block to keep them organized and protected. If the blades become dull over time, you can have them professionally sharpened. These knives are made to last, so with proper care, they'll be a great addition to your kitchen for years to come.
