Troubleshooting
Knives appear dull
Ensure you are using the correct knife for the cheese type. For persistent dullness, professional sharpening or use of a specialized knife sharpener may be required, focusing on the grade 420 steel.
Water spots on the finish
Dry the knives immediately after hand washing with a soft, lint-free towel. If spots persist, a mild stainless steel cleaner can be used sparingly.
Residue in hollow handles
Use a soft bottle brush or a damp cloth wrapped around a thin utensil to gently clean inside the hollow handles. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The set comes ready for use, presented in its oak box. Simply remove the knives from their protective velvet insert.
Compatibility: This set is designed exclusively for cutting and serving cheese. It is not intended for use as general-purpose kitchen cutlery.
Care: To maintain the pristine mirror-polished finish and the integrity of the hollow handles, hand washing is highly recommended. Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth. Dry immediately with a clean, soft towel to prevent water spots. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface. The oak box should be wiped clean with a damp cloth and dried thoroughly.
