FAQs
Can I put the Vogue Tsuki Chef Knife in the dishwasher?
No. Dishwashers can damage the blade edge and the handle finish. Always hand wash only.
What is the benefit of the VG-10 steel core?
VG-10 is a premium Japanese stainless steel known for its high hardness, which allows it to hold a sharp edge much longer than standard steel.
How should I store this knife?
Store it in a knife block, a knife roll, or on a magnetic wall strip to keep the edge protected from contact with other utensils.
Is the handle prone to rusting?
The handle is constructed from durable metal, but it should still be kept clean and dry to ensure its longevity.
Can I use this knife on glass or ceramic cutting boards?
It is highly recommended to avoid glass or ceramic boards as they will cause the blade to dull very quickly.
How often should I sharpen the blade?
Depending on usage frequency, honing should be done weekly, with a full sharpening on a whetstone every few months.
Troubleshooting
Blade feels dull or struggles to cut
Use a sharpening stone to refine the VG-10 core edge or perform light honing before use.
Appearance of surface spots
Clean the blade gently with a non-abrasive pad and ensure the knife is stored in a dry environment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Vogue Tsuki knife remains in peak condition, follow these care guidelines: Always hand wash the blade with warm water and a mild detergent immediately after use. Avoid soaking the knife or leaving it in a sink, as this can lead to water spots or oxidation. Once cleaned, dry the knife thoroughly with a soft cloth before storing it in a knife block or on a magnetic rack. To maintain the sharpness of the edge, use a whetstone or a high-quality honing steel regularly. Never use this knife to cut through frozen food or bone, as this can cause the blade to chip.
