First of all, it should be remembered that immediately after you used the cooking tool, it should be washed. Do not leave on the surface of the instrument remnants of food or even its traces.

If you notice that the stains on the knife are quite intense, then by no means resort to using bleach, chlorine-containing products, or abrasives - they can all cause irreparable damage to the knife and its structure will be broken. Due to inaccurate cleaning of the knife, it can lose all of its cutting properties.

If possible, wash the knives by hand and do not use the dishwasher. If, however, it turned out that it is impossible to do without the help of household appliances, then make sure that the knives inside the dishwasher are positioned with the blades facing up. In addition, during dishwashing the knives should be placed in a separate container.

Do not soak the knives and make sure that they are not in the aquatic environment for a long time. Prolonged contact with water can have a bad effect on the metal from which the blade is made. After you have washed the knife, it must be thoroughly wiped with a soft cloth.

Do not forget that knives are those kitchen tools that need periodic sharpening. Remember that using a blunt knife is contraindicated. This is dangerous not only for you, but can also harm the device itself.

Manufacturers of knives Arcos for sharpening knives do not recommend the use of conventional grinding stones. Preference should be given to devices that are made of special honed steel. In addition, in the process of grinding should follow a few simple rules:

• secure your hands and fingers;
• put a knife blade at an angle of sharpening of 20 degrees in relation to the sharpening surface;
