Washing – general care
- Rinse immediately after contact with acidic or salty foods to prevent discoloration or corrosion.
Dishwasher
- Stainless-steel cutlery is dishwasher safe.
- Place cutlery in the appropriate holder, with handles facing downward, and keep knives separated to prevent scratching.
- Avoid mixing cutlery made from different metals to prevent chemical reactions.
- Remove items immediately after the cycle and dry with a soft cloth to prevent water marks.
Pieces with hollow handles and those made with wood, fiber/resin, or PVD coatings may be placed in the dishwasher, following these guidelines:
- Wash at a maximum temperature of 60ºC / 140ºF.
- Use detergent containing less than 10% phosphates.
Knives
- Blades are tempered for superior performance but may oxidize if left wet.
- Wash and dry knives immediately after use.
- Store in a knife block, sheath, or dedicated drawer to prevent dulling and damage.
Maintaining shine & handles
- To restore shine, briefly soak stainless-steel pieces in a solution of 1 part vinegar to 8 parts warm water, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Wooden handles (such as maple or rosewood):
- Avoid prolonged exposure to water.
- Natural color changes over time are normal.
- Occasionally apply a small amount of food-safe oil to preserve the wood’s tone and texture.
Storage
- Store cutlery in a dry, well-ventilated environment.
- Use dividers, trays, or protective cases to prevent scratches.
- Keep knives protected to maintain sharpness and surface integrity.
Handwashing
- Suitable for all stainless-steel cutlery.
- Use warm water and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive sponges, steel wool, or harsh cleaning products.
