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.

High quality knives, sharp and ergonomic! Had a damaged one in my initial shipment and within the week they had a replacement on the way! Couldn’t recommend more!
Extremely soft leather roll not cheap leather like some of the other online knife companies I have purchased from. The knives are extremely well balanced easy to sharpen and work extremely well top to bottom. These knives have been getting about 10 to 12 hours of use a day for the past week and they are as sharp as the day I got them
Good quality super sharp
Meh... Not exactly what I was expecting, but it will have to do since there is no return available. I definitely wouldn't recommend it. The fact that is specifically says not for use on "bone" is another issue.
Hey Edward,
Sorry to hear they are not what you expected. We do accept returns on like new knives, so as long as you haven’t damaged the knives we are happy to take a return on them. You should never chop bone with any fine-edged kitchen knife, especially high-carbon steel. It is a very hard steel ground to a super fine edge so it will chip or roll if you chop into bone. That’s just how a thin hardened edge works. Shoot us an email to reachout@foldedsteel.com if you’d like to return them. We would also love to hear more about what you did or didn’t like about them!

These knives are sharp out of the box and sharp to look at. Really good balance right at the heel and an amazing hand feel. I have spent more for less quality. You can't go wrong here.
