Tips about this kitchen knife

What will happen?

The olive wood handle of this knife is not oiled on the surface to make it more textured and beautiful. Therefore, we need to pay special attention to one thing: the handle will become moldy if it is kept in moisture for a long time.

How to clean the handle?

Avoid soaking the handle in water. It is recommended to wipe it with a damp cloth and dry it immediately.

How to maintain the wooden handle?

After receiving the kitchen knife, you can use some mineral oil to apply to the handle, which can keep the olive wood's luster and reduce the chance of mold.
