The leather spacer & buffalo horn handle is a distinctive part of the design. Individually made pieces can differ slightly in pattern and finish; compare the photographs for the overall appearance rather than expecting every small detail to repeat exactly.

Hand-clean the blade after use and dry it thoroughly. Avoid a dishwasher, prolonged soaking, and damp storage. Apply a light protective coating suitable for the blade before extended storage; use a food-contact-appropriate product on kitchen cutlery. Remove excess oil before use. Follow the maker’s sharpening instructions for the particular edge and avoid changing its profile unnecessarily.
