Care:

Shirogami #2 (white #2) steel is one of the most popular types of high carbon steel found in Japanese kitchen knives (Wa Knives). It is not stainless, therefore you must wipe your knife dry after each use. Patina will develop over time. Rust may develop if left in prolonged contact with water or acidic food. Use a rust eraser to clean if rusts develop. Avoid cutting into bones, frozen foods, hard fruit pits.

Cutting Surface:

Recommended cutting surface: wood, rubberized boards and high-end composites, and quality plastics such as polyethene make acceptable cutting surfaces, and will help protect and prolong knife’s edge. AVOID glass, metal, countertops, and other rigid, non-forgiving surfaces.

Sharpening:

We recommend sharpening all quality Japanese knives on whetstones, as we believe they yield the best results for your knives.

Great Scent
I heard about Cremo for my husband through a friend. He loves the scent, and how hydrated his skin feels after with no filmy residue.

Great value for the price and my favorite flavor.
Vintage suede leaves my skin feeling nice, soft, and smelling good. Doesn’t irritate me at all and provides a good clean while not drying you out.

“AROMATHERAPY” IN THE SHOWER
LOVE this scent! Strong in shower but mellows once rinsed off (might be too strong for sensitive individuals). It’s an “aromatherapy” experience every time you shower! We like the scent so much we put a squirt or two in our foaming hand soap dispensers (we switched to fragrance free hand soap so we could scent it with this)!
