Hand-wash each knife immediately after use with warm water and mild liquid dish soap; avoid abrasive scouring pads. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth before storing in the rubberwood block to protect the blade edges. Do not wash Global knives in an automatic dishwasher, as high heat and detergent salts can dull and pit the steel. Maintain razor edges periodically using a ceramic sharpening rod or whetstone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"16\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"17\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"17\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eQ: Are Global Takumi knives dishwasher safe?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"18\"\u003eA: No. High-end Japanese cutlery should always be hand-washed and dried immediately.
