Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap, and dry immediately — never leave a blade soaking or run it through a dishwasher. Wipe on a light coat of food-grade mineral oil after use to protect the steel, and store it dry in a sheath, knife roll, or on a magnetic strip. A few seconds of care after each use keeps a hand-forged edge true for decades.

About this piece

Un couperet à large ventre conçu pour les tâches de cuisine réelles, comme fendre des articulations, écraser de l'ail ou découper une volaille entière. La lame est forgée à la main en acier à haute teneur en carbone et durcie de manière différentielle, laissant une ligne de trempe naturelle où le tranchant dur rencontre le dos plus doux, texturé au marteau.

Le manche est en bois de rose massif pour un aspect chaleureux et classique qui ne fait que s'améliorer avec l'âge.
