Damascus steel has a high carbon content which gives it a long-lasting edge. However, the carbon makes it susceptible to rust when it is subjected to moisture. To avoid this wash your knives in warm water with any standard dish soap and fully dry with a fresh towel. Once dry take a cloth or paper towel and coat the knife with oil. We recommend Mineral Oil as it is cheap, food-safe, and does not spoil. Any cooking oil will do the job short term however it is not recommended for long storage times due to spoiling.
If your knife ends up with some rust on it, don't worry! It's an easy fix!
On a fresh blade rust can form within minutes, and it can be a scary sight but don't lose hope yet! If rust appears, rub the blade down with apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, wash with warm soapy water, hand dry, then oil the blade as normal. Over time your knife will develop a patina and will become more lenient to moisture. High Carbon Damascus does require a bit more care than your grandmas bread knife, but the quality, performance, and user experience make it more than worth it!
Here's some quick tips for your reference.
-Wash in warm soapy water and dry immediately.
-Use mineral oil to coat the blade before storing.
-If you get rust, vinegar will fix it.
-Do not store knives in the leather roll for long periods of time, the leather can hold moisture against the blade. If you have to do it, apply a heavy coat of oil before storing.

Beautiful, useful, artful, sharp. Delivered quickly. Great company, responsive.
Very nice feel in the hand; blade and hilt are top quality.
dull and disappointing. This paring knife out of the package couldn’t cut through the paper on a stick of butter. Nevermind the pounds of fruit and veg that i had intended it to. I thought i’d keep it as a box opener… but it struggles at that task as well. Don’t wash it without meticulously drying it or it will rust… severely. These knives are not kitchen tools. Buy the magnetic knife block… prop them on your shelf to show off to your friends… but don’t bother using them as serious tools.
Hey Dustin,
Sorry to hear you had issues. It looks like your order is from January. We had some growing pains with the influx of holiday orders and have since upgraded our machines and processes to accommodate the volume. Shoot us an email to reachout@foldedsteel.com and we'd be happy to get your knife sharpened up for you. In regards to rust, our knives are high carbon steel and must be kept oiled to keep rust at bay.
