─── Knife Model Introduction ▪️ Tsubaki Knife ───
▸ The Tsubaki knife is a traditional blade style crafted by Miyazaki Kajiya, originating from the practical knife designs of the Edo period.
▸ The tip is upturned and sharp, making it suitable for precision work and delicate trimming.
▸ Versatile for various cooking tasks, including meat, vegetables, small fish, and root vegetables.
▸ As these are handmade, each knife has subtle individual variations and requires maintenance to prevent rust.
☆【 Maintenance Precautions 】
Carbon steel is prone to oxidation. After ensuring the surface is thoroughly dry, please apply a thin, even coat of food-grade oil (such as camellia oil or mineral oil) to the blade to block moisture and prevent rust.
▸ Avoid extreme hard objects: Do not hack frozen foods or hard bones, as this may damage the blade structure, cause chipping, or break the edge.
▸ No dishwasher/dryer: Do not use a dishwasher or drying machine; high temperatures and strong detergents will damage the blade and handle.
▸ Standard cleaning procedure: After use, hand wash with warm water, wipe dry immediately with a clean cloth or soft towel, and store in a well-ventilated, dry place.
