The recommended cleaning method is to wash knives by hand using lukewarm water, mild dish soap, and a non-scratch cloth or sponge. While some knives are technically dishwasher-safe under 55 °C \/ 131°F, it’s still not recommended due to potential damage by aggressive chemicals, high temperatures, and contact with other objects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• For knives with wooden handles (like Japanese varieties), hand washing is mandatory. Regular treatment with linseed oil or beeswax helps prevent the wood from drying out or becoming brittle—and it also restores sheen and color. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e• Storage: Quality knives should have their own space rather than being thrown into a cluttered drawer. Ideal options include a knife block, or if space is tight, drawer organizers or protective sleeves can help too.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ZWILLING","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46972163784930,"sku":"CTZW0015","price":399.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0581\/9213\/4297\/files\/kb71.jpg?v=1761680675","url":"https:\/\/aakitchenloft.com\/products\/four-star-7-piece-knife-block-set-natural","provider":"The Kitchen Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
