This makes maintenance effortless, whether for home or professional use. https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15696221.jpg 34-Layer Single Bevel Damascus Pattern Damascus steel, originating from the high-carbon steel of the Damascus region in 3rd-century Middle East, was prized for its sharpness and toughness, making it a treasured craft artifact of its time. While its original steel properties are difficult to replicate today, contemporary bladesmiths achieve the beautiful Damascus pattern by layering steels of varying hardness, followed by etching and polishing. Yantian employs a three-layer construction technique, encasing the 9-chrome steel core with outer layers of Damascus steel, combining strength, beauty, and sharpness in one blade. https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15696302.jpg Each Piece is Uniquely Beautiful https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15543555.jpg https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15543556.jpg Classic Japanese Wooden Handle Design This traditional Japanese wooden handle can be replaced by the original Yantian factory, alleviating concerns about discarding a knife due to handle damage. https://cdn.store-assets.com/s/761499/f/15696230.jpg Artisan Hand-Sharpened Edge With decades of sharpening experience, our masters hand-sharpen each knife, imbuing every Yantian blade with exceptional sharpness.

Clean with water or a mild detergent only. Avoid using dishwashers or drying machines, as they can affect the lifespan of the wooden handle. 2. After washing, air dry the knife and store it in a cool, shaded place. Avoid direct sunlight, which can shorten the life of the wooden handle. 3. Do not use scouring pads or similar cleaning tools, as they can damage the blade's surface and shorten its lifespan. 【Care During Food Preparation】 1. Always wash thoroughly after cutting acidic or sticky foods. 2. Thaw frozen foods completely before using the knife to avoid damage. 3. Use the knife on a cutting board. Using it on hard surfaces (like concrete, tile, or ceramic plates) will accelerate blade wear. 4. Slicing knives are designed for slicing and paring, not for chopping hard ingredients, to prevent edge rolling or chipping. For bone-in items, a cleaver is recommended. 【Handle Care】 1. Under normal use, the wooden handle requires no special maintenance. To enhance its texture and longevity, you may apply food-grade beeswax. 2. Important Notes: *It is not recommended for non-professionals to sharpen knives using whetstones or similar tools. *Dishwashers and drying machines are not recommended for cleaning.
