Care recommendations for EKA1882 Swede 8 RT
All our knives are crafted from premium Swedish steel and designed to deliver durability and reliability over time. With proper knife care and by regularly maintaining your EKA1882 knife, you ensure it always performs at its best. Our blades are incredibly sharp, so handle them carefully during cleaning. We also recommend oiling the blade regularly for extra protection against corrosion and optimal performance.
- Never use your knife blade as an axe, chisel, punch, pry bar or screwdriver.
- Clean your knife with dish soap after each use and dry it thoroughly. This will help prevent corrosion, even on stainless steel. For hygienic reasons, ensure the blade is completely dry before placing it back in its sheath.
- Oil your knife for extra protection against corrosion. We recommend using natural oils for an environmentally friendly choice.
- Store your knife safely in the sheath when it’s not being used.
- Maintain your Swede 8 RT by sharpening regularly.
- Oil the wood handle on your knife with any natural oil and store it in a dry place.
