Notes:
The blade is relatively thin and not suitable for cutting frozen meat or bones. Carbon steel blades are prone to rust when in contact with water. After use, ensure thorough drying. For long-term storage, apply a specialized Japanese blade rust prevention oil, wipe dry after oiling for maintenance and luster.
