Guide to Cleaning the Knife

• Safety First: Ensure the knife is closed before you begin cleaning. If you need to open it for thorough cleaning, do so with caution.
• Wipe Down: Use a soft cloth to wipe down the blade and handle, removing any visible dirt or grime.
• Deep Clean: For a deeper clean, use a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol to clean the knife’s crevices, including the area around the spring mechanism. Be careful not to soak the knife or its parts.
• Dry Thoroughly: Once you’ve finished cleaning, make sure to dry the knife thoroughly to prevent rusting.
• Apply Lubricant: Apply a small amount of lubricant to the spring mechanism and the blade’s pivot point. This ensures smooth operation and protects against rust.

How to Sharpen the Blade Correctly

Sharpening your spring-assist knife is essential for maintaining its cutting efficiency. Here’s a basic guide on how to do it correctly:

• Choose the Right Sharpener: Use a sharpening stone, a knife sharpener, or a sharpening system designed for pocketknives.
• Determine the Angle: Find the existing angle of the edge (typically 20-30 degrees for most pocketknives).
• Sharpen the Blade: Holding the knife at the correct angle, draw the blade across the sharpener, maintaining consistent pressure. Repeat this process until the blade is sharp, usually after several strokes.
• Work on Both Sides: Make sure to sharpen both sides of the blade equally to maintain balance.
• Final Test: Test the knife on a piece of paper or cardboard. If it cuts smoothly, the blade is sharp.

A well-maintained spring-assist knife is a safe and reliable tool. Regular cleaning and sharpening not only ensures optimal performance but also enhances the lifespan of your knife, making these practices an integral part of responsible knife ownership.
