The three layers of this knife consist of a hard inner layer and two softer outer layers. This ensures long-lasting sharpness and precision, at the same time the knives are better protected against wear.

- Balance and ergonomics : This paring knife fits perfectly in the hand thanks to its balanced design. The handle is very comfortable in the hand, for both left- and right-handed people.
- Durability and quality : Made of high-quality Damascus steel The durability of Damascus steel lies in its strength, wear resistance and long life. The three layers of forged steel ensure that maintenance is easier. An investment for life in your culinary journey.

Maintenance tips and recommendations
To keep your paring knife in optimum condition, we recommend hand washing it with mild soap and warm water. As with any good paring knife, avoid the dishwasher, as the harsh cleaning can quickly shorten the life of your knife. After washing, make sure to dry it immediately and thoroughly to avoid stains.
Sharpen regularly
Use a sharpening stone or sharpening steel regularly. This will help you effortlessly maintain the sharpness and precision of your knife, extend its lifespan and continue to enjoy an unparalleled cutting experience.
Storage
Properly storing your knives in a knife block is essential to not only ensure safety, but also extend the life of your knives. By storing them this way, you prevent damage to the cutting edges and ensure that they are always within reach when you need them.
Correct substrate
Quality cutting boards are essential for keeping your knives sharp and extending their life. They provide a soft, non-abrasive surface that prevents knives from dulling quickly and reduces the impact on the blade while cutting. Using quality cutting boards is an investment in both the performance and durability of your knives.

I ordered a magnetic knife block and it's perfect. The delivery took a little longer than expected but I only realised later that it's shipped from outside the UK. Nonetheless, it arrived in great condition, looks fab and works exactly as I hoped.
