Care treatment of knives

Always remember, though, that even stainless steel knives are never 100% rustproof. Therefore rinse off acids (e.g. from fruit and vegetable juices, mustard, ketchup) from the blade immediately after use. Should stains appear after all, they can easily be removed with a standard non-abrasive metal cleaner.
