Knife Maintenance Guide

To extend the lifespan of your Haoworks knife and maintain its peak performance, follow these care recommendations:

1. Regular Cleaning

  • Wipe off moisture and debris after use to prevent oxidation and rust.
  • Use a clean cloth or cotton swab to remove dirt from the bolster, pivot, and other components.

2. Lubricate the Pivot

  • Periodically apply professional knife lubricant (such as Nano-Oil or WD40) to the pivot and washers for smooth blade action.

3. Maintain Blade Sharpness

  • While Haoworks knives are expertly sharpened, occasional honing is recommended.
  • Use a ceramic honing rod or fine-grit sharpening stone for light edge maintenance.

4. Avoid Overloading & Misuse

  • Do not use the knife for prying, hammering, or cutting excessively hard materials, as this may damage the structure or blade edge.

5. Proper Storage

  • Store in a dry environment to prevent moisture buildup.
  • If storing long-term, apply a thin layer of protective oil on the blade to prevent oxidation.
