The patterned blade is a prominent part of this design. Pattern placement and contrast can differ between individually made pieces; the photographs illustrate the appearance rather than guaranteeing an identical pattern on every knife.

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. Keep the sheath dry and avoid leaving a damp blade enclosed in leather. For extended storage, keep the clean, protected blade in a dry place outside the leather sheath. Follow the maker’s sharpening instructions for the particular edge and avoid changing its profile unnecessarily.
