Common Questions

What comes in the kit? One 30 ml bottle of mineral oil with a glass dropper, one 400-grit corundum rust eraser and one 30 × 30 cm polishing cloth in a fitted presentation box. Knives are not included.

Does this kit sharpen knives? No. It is designed for surface maintenance and does not include a sharpener, honing rod or whetstone.

Can I use the rust eraser on every knife? No. The eraser is abrasive and may change the finish. Confirm compatibility before use, especially on coated or decorative blades.

Should I use all three components every time? No. Each serves a different purpose. The rust eraser is for localized surface rust when needed, rather than everyday maintenance.

Is the oil food-grade? Yes. It is 100% food-grade white mineral oil, intended for maintenance rather than consumption.

Can I use the kit beyond knives? Individual components may be suitable for other items, including compatible scissors, cookware and stovetop surfaces. Follow each item’s care instructions; not every component is suitable for every surface.
