To ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your Opinel knife, please follow these care instructions:

1. Cleaning: After each use, clean the blade with warm, soapy water and dry it thoroughly to prevent rust. Avoid soaking the knife in water.

2. Sharpening: Regularly sharpen the blade using a whetstone or sharpening tool to maintain its cutting quality.

3. Storage: Store the knife in a dry place, preferably in a sheath, to protect the blade and handle from moisture and damage.

4. Maintenance: Periodically apply a light coat of food-safe mineral oil to the blade to enhance corrosion resistance and maintain its appearance.

5. Handle Care: The wood handle can be treated with a wood conditioner to preserve its natural beauty and prevent drying or cracking.
