Care Instructions

Daily Care

Dishwasher Safe: Our cutlery is dishwasher safe for your convenience. For best results:

  • Place cutlery in the dishwasher basket with handles down
  • Avoid overcrowding to prevent scratching
  • Use quality dishwasher detergent
  • Remove promptly after cycle completes to prevent water spots

Hand Washing: For those who prefer hand washing:

  • Wash with warm water and mild dish soap
  • Dry immediately with a soft cloth to prevent water spots
  • Avoid abrasive sponges or cleaners that may scratch the finish

Maintaining Your Cutlery

Storage:

  • Store in a dry drawer or cutlery organizer
  • Keep knives separate or in protective sleeves to maintain edges
  • Ensure pieces are completely dry before storing

Polishing:

  • For polished finishes, occasional buffing with a soft cloth restores shine
  • Use stainless steel polish if needed for stubborn spots
  • Always follow the grain of brushed finishes when polishing

What to Avoid

  • Prolonged Soaking: Don't leave cutlery soaking in water for extended periods
  • Harsh Chemicals: Avoid bleach, ammonia, or harsh abrasive cleaners
  • Extreme Heat: Don't expose to open flames or extreme temperatures
  • Acidic Foods: Rinse promptly after contact with acidic foods (citrus, vinegar, tomatoes)

Knife Care

To maintain the performance of your Coocuna knives:

  • Use appropriate cutting surfaces (wood or plastic cutting boards)
  • Avoid cutting on hard surfaces like glass, marble, or ceramic
  • Hand wash knives when possible and dry immediately
  • Store knives in a knife block, on a magnetic strip, or with blade guards
  • Have knives professionally sharpened as needed to maintain edge quality
