      <image:title>Knife Care - Basic Knife Care</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hand-wash ONLY. Or at a minimum rinse with clean water and wipe dry between and after use. Avoid fully submerging the knife into hot water. NEVER put your knife through a dishwasher or leave soaking in water, this will lead to rapid corrosion on both Carbon Steel and Stainless Steel knives. High temperatures of a dishwasher can cause handle cracks. DO NOT allow food and/or excessive water to remain on the blade, this will also cause rapid corrosion. ALWAYS ensure the entire knife is completely dry before storing it, I recommend a universal knife block or magnetic wall for storage when not in use. DO NOT leave the knife in the sheath for extended periods of time, any moisture that develops will be trapped and will cause rust on the blade.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Knife Care - Carbon Steel</image:title>
      <image:caption>High carbon steel used for knives is a simple combination of iron and carbon, typically containing 0.7 - 0.9% carbon and minimal alloying elements. When a carbon steel is heat treated properly it can retain an edge for longer than a stainless steel. It does however develop a patina. Keep it clean and dry and you will dramatically increase the lifetime of your purchase.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Knife Care - Stainless Steel</image:title>
      <image:caption>Stainless steel while having a combination of iron and carbon similar to carbon steel has other alloying elements that significantly increase the corrosion protection of the blade. Stainless Steel, as the name suggests is stain LESS not Stain NEVER Steel. It will rust if left soaking in water or put through a dishwasher. Wipe with hot soapy water, DO not submerge in water.</image:caption>

A pleasure to order within Australia; excellent value, also, for very fine work.”</image:title>
