Steelport Knife Co. Carbon Steel Care Kit

$45.00

The Steelport Carbon Steel Care Kit comes equipped with blade oil and handle wax to keep your knives in top shape. Add the oil to a clean cloth or towel and apply to a dry blade to maintain its luster and shine. Add a small scoop of handle wax to a clean cloth or towel, applying evenly to the wooden handle of your knife for 5 minutes to keep wood from dulling or drying. Use both oil and wax regularly to preserve your knives for generations to come.

Care and Use

Use: Carbon steel knives, such as those made by Steelport, should be washed and thoroughly dried by hand. Do not clean in the dishwasher. Carbon steel will develop a patina with use.
