Caring for Your New Red’s Best x R. Murphy Knives

Our custom-engraved fillet and oyster knives are handcrafted in the USA by R. Murphy-renowned for their exacting standards, premium materials, and exceptional sharpness. With proper care, these knives are built to last a lifetime. Follow these simple guidelines to keep your blades performing at their best.

DO

• Hand wash and dry after every use.
  Dishwashers can cause dings, scrapes, and dulling of the blade’s edge. High heat and harsh detergents can damage and crack wood handles.

• Store your knives properly.
  Use a magnetic strip or wooden knife block to protect the cutting edge. Avoid tossing knives loosely into drawers.

• Keep your knives sharp.
  A sharp knife is safer and more effective. (Check out the sharpening how-to video on our website.)

• Oil occasionally.
  A thin coat of mineral oil keeps wood handles nourished and protects the blade.

DON'T

• Don’t put your knives in the dishwasher.
  We can’t stress this enough!

• Don’t pry, twist, or use the blade for tasks it wasn’t designed for.

• Don’t use knives on hard surfaces such as glass, stone, or metal.
  Choose wood or bamboo cutting boards to keep the edge sharp and strong.

Built for Performance. Made to Last.

Your knife comes with a light coating of mineral oil for protection during shipping—simply wipe it clean and it's ready to use. Crafted from high-performing carbon steel and easy-to-maintain stainless, each blade is factory hand-honed for an exceptionally sharp edge, time after time.
