To ensure a long life for your KAI knives, it is recommended to avoid dishwashers and not cut into hard items such as bones, cartilage, frozen foods or hard cheeses. Be aware that thin, hard metal can be fragile, so handle the knives with care.
Genuine Japanese kitchen knives are made from various types of hard, high-quality steel and represent the finest in Japanese knife craftsmanship.
To maintain the sharpness of the knife and ensure a long service life, it is important to adhere to the following guidelines:
- Never wash the knives in a dishwasher. Instead, clean the knife by hand with lukewarm water and dry it thoroughly immediately – never let it air dry.
- The knives must not be used for hard items such as frozen foods, bones, cartilage, cartilage or hard cheeses.
- Only use the knives on wooden or plastic cutting boards. Avoid cutting surfaces made of glass, stone or metal.
- Store the knife on a magnetic knife holder or in a knife rail. Avoid loose drawers where the blade can be damaged.
- Sharpen the knife regularly with a wet whetstone or have it sharpened professionally.
- Avoid using knife sharpeners with steel or ceramic wheels as they can damage the hard steel.
- Keep the blade dry and clean – for longer storage, a thin layer of oil (e.g. camellia oil) can protect the steel from rust.
Japanese knives are made of thin, hard steel, which gives them extreme sharpness. However, this hardness makes them more vulnerable to chipping (small nicks in the edge) if used incorrectly. This is not a defect – but a characteristic of the fine material.

Real Products, Honest Images
For us, craftsmanship, materials and aesthetics take centre stage. Our product photos should give you an honest and inspiring impression of what you're getting – without unnecessary staging.
The vast majority of product photos in our webshop are therefore taken by us – whether it's a mill, a knife holder, a serving board or one of our textiles. The images of our wooden products always show real, handcrafted pieces, photographed before they are packed and shipped to their new owners.
To help you imagine how the products look in different homes and kitchens, we sometimes place these original photographs into AI-generated interiors or backgrounds. Only the background is artificial – the product itself is never altered or AI-generated. Every grain, edge, colour and detail you see belongs to the physical piece we made.
From time to time, we also receive photos from happy customers who kindly allow us to use them in the webshop. These images offer an honest and inspiring glimpse of how our products look in real homes and surroundings.
No artificial product renders. No misleading visual enhancements. Just real craftsmanship, photographed honestly.
Reference images when choosing a variant
We are constantly expanding our product gallery. As many of our products come in a wide range of sizes and variants, we don't yet have photos of them all. The image shown for your selection therefore primarily illustrates the chosen wood type – not necessarily the specific size or design variation.
Every piece of wood is unique
Wood is a living, natural material, and our passion is creating unique products with character. Grain patterns and colour tones will therefore naturally vary from piece to piece. Please consider our images as guiding inspiration and an indication of the quality we deliver.
In doubt? We're happy to help.
Questions about design, size, wood type or special requests? Don't hesitate to contact us at info@rune-jakobsen.dk so we can guide you to the right choice before you order.
