FAQ's
Online Sales
We have decided not to offer our selection for sale online and believe that most things are better purchased in person. We have a large rotating selection which would be difficult for us to maintain as a web-store, so choose to focus our efforts on educating and guiding our customers towards the right knife for them. That said, if you are an existing customer and know what you want, please do feel free to contact us and we will be happy to accommodate if we can.
Knife Care
No knife is dishwasher safe and stainless does not mean stain-proof - hand wash and dry your knives immediately after each use. Patina/discoloration is normal on carbon steel knives, rust should be removed immediately in order to avoid pitting (we recommend Barkeepers friend, found at any grocery store) As a general rule - do not use your knife on anything you would not use your teeth on or it will chip (cleavers aside), bones and frozen food will damage your blade. All knives will dull with use, regardless of price, and will need regular honing and sharpening. Always use a wood, plastic, or hard rubber cutting board - avoid cutting on plates, countertops and hard materials such as glass or granite. We encourage all our customers to maintain their own tools if they wish and are here as a resource.
Uniform Sales
We currently only sell uniforms at the Phoenix location and welcome retail sales as well as business - to establish an account please contact the Phoenix store for all your BOH and FOH needs. Our Portland store carries only aprons at the moment.
