Congratulations on your purchase of a knife from Eagle’s Nest Forge! To make your knife last for generations here’s some care tips:   

-Leave a light coating of oil on your knife, I always use mineral oil to stay food-safe, but any high quality oil will work.     

-Keep your blade dry and do not store it in a sheath wet as this will cause rust to start to oxidize.   Do not store any knife long-term in the sheath as this would also cause rust to build up on the blade from trapped moisture.

-Keep your blade sharp by using a regular stone, we recommend a grit of 2000 to keep that honed edge.

-Do not wash your knife in a dishwasher.
