Pro Tip & Wine Knife Maintenance: The N°10 Corkscrew Knife is built to handle years of open-air entertaining, but simple post-picnic care is essential to preserve its natural timber finish. Never submerge the knife in water or wash it in a dishwasher, as moisture will cause the beechwood handle to swell, stiffening the blade action. Simply wipe the stainless steel blade and corkscrew clean with a warm, damp soapy cloth after use, and dry thoroughly with a towel before folding it closed. If the wood handles juices or cheese oils, an occasional light coat of food-safe mineral oil rubbed onto the timber fibers will enhance its beautiful satin grain and keep the Virobloc locking ring spinning smoothly through a lifetime of celebrations!
