*Bench Notes & Field Care Guidance:*
Case Tru-Sharp Surgical Stainless Steel provides excellent natural resistance to rust and corrosion. After daily use, wipe down the mirror-polished blade with a soft microfiber cloth to remove fingerprints or moisture. Keep the slipjoint backspring pivot clear of lint and dirt using compressed air, and apply a single drop of light mineral oil or pivot lubricant to maintain smooth spring action. Clean the Kirinite handles with warm water and mild dish soap as needed.
