It's not only dangerous, but it also damages the knife's edge. Therefore, store your knife safely in a knife block, hang it on a magnetic strip, or put it away. The knives in this set have a hardness of 57 HRC. This hardness ensures good edge retention, but the knife is still easy to sharpen by hand. Dishwasher safe? As with all other knives, dishwasher use is not recommended. We advise cleaning your quality knife with lukewarm, mild soapy water and drying it thoroughly. This way, you will enjoy your knife for the longest time. In the dishwasher, the steel is exposed to various temperatures, acids and other corrosive substances. In addition, there is a risk of the blade being damaged if it hits plates, pans and other hard objects.
