Caring for your knives

I have one simple rule for caring for knives: if you treat them well, they’ll treat you well. And by treating you well, that means that they’ll last for many years. My primary knives are over 20 years old, and should be going strong for many more years. You can get the same mileage out of yours by paying attention to how you wash, store, and use your knives.


A knife does not recognize its owner.	African proverb

His pocket knife opens in my pocket.	Hungarian proverb

The tongue that belongs to a fake friend is sharper than a knife.	Faroese proverb

The tongue that belongs to a fake friend is sharper than a knife.

Langenhoven

God created the world just like a knife and left it up to us to take it by the handle or the blade.

Hilary J. Bader

The bigger the smile, the sharper the knife.
