Care
When cutting or peeling fruit,
fruit juice often runs down between the blades,
sticking them together once it has dried. Open
and close the blades in warm water several times
and the tools can be easily moved again. When
they have dried it would be good, but not always
necessary, to apply a small drop of oil between
the blade or tool shank and the spring. On the
locking mechanism sometimes a drop of this
excellent gliding oil could be helpful. Do not
put penknives or other multi-tools in the
dishwasher! |

When selecting knife oil,
various properties need to be taken into
account, including the legal provisions relating
to the safety of foodstuffs. Some oils intended
for pocket knives do not provide satisfactory
lubrication or may even prevent the knife
working properly (causing it to stick, for
example).
Our recommendation

main features of this multi-purpose oil
are:
neutral odour and taste, highly
resistant to ageing, good wear and corrosion
protection qualities, suitable for use with

Sharpening
Re-sharpen using a whetstone
at an angle of 15° - 20°. This will result in a
cutting angle of 30° - 40°. If sharpening on a
grinding wheel, always cool with plenty of water
to avoid excessive temperatures. |
