A: Always hand wash your Damascus steel cleaver with mild soap and warm water — avoid dishwashers, as harsh detergents and heat can dull the blade and affect the handle.

A: Absolutely. The XITUO Damascus cleaver arrives in multi-layer shock-proof protective packaging, making it an impressive and thoughtful gift for home cooks, culinary students, or anyone who appreciates fine kitchen tools.
