After each use, make sure to wash the knives by hand with mild soap and warm water, then dry them thoroughly. Avoid using abrasive materials or dishwashers, as they can damage the blade. Additionally, it's recommended to regularly sharpen the blade using a whetstone or honing rod to maintain its sharpness.
While sashimi knives are primarily designed for slicing raw fish, they can also be used for other delicate ingredients like vegetables and fruits. Their sharp and precise blades make them versatile tools in the kitchen.
