VÖRDA Kitchen Knife
Design Håkan Olsson
Brand: IKEA
Before Using for the First Time
- Wash, rinse, and dry the knife before using it for the first time.
Cleaning
- Knives prefer to be washed by hand.
- While unlikely to be rendered useless if washed in a dishwasher, the edge can be damaged, the blade may corrode, or the plastic handle surface may become dull.
- Wash and dry the knife directly after use to prevent the risk of bacteria spreading, for example, from raw chicken to fresh vegetables.
- To avoid unsightly marks on the blade, dry the knife immediately after it has been washed.
Storing and Using Your Knife
- Avoid cutting through frozen or very hard foods (e.g., bones), as this can cause the edge to bend or shards to loosen in the blade.
- If cutting into hard foods: Pull the knife back and forth through the food. Do not rock the knife from side to side.
- Always use a chopping board made of wood or plastic.
- Never cut on a surface made of glass, metal, or ceramics.
- Store your knife in a knife block or on a magnetic strip on the wall. Storing knives correctly protects the edge and prolongs the life of the knife.
