Care & Maintenance
Clean the knife block by hand using a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid immersing the block in water or placing it in a dishwasher, as prolonged moisture and high-temperature cleaning cycles may damage the wooden construction. Allow the block and all knife slots to dry completely before returning knives to storage.
