Why

High-carbon stainless steel blades can be damaged by harsh dishwasher detergents and high heat, leading to corrosion, dulling, and handle degradation. The wooden or synthetic handles may also crack or discolor over time.

Hand wash with mild soap and warm water, then dry immediately with a soft cloth. Store in a knife block or on a magnetic strip to protect the blades.
