Also remember the sharpening stone

Japanese kitchen knives are made of very hard and thin metal. Therefore, they must not be used to chop or twist hard materials such as frozen or bone-in meat, coconuts, can lids, etc. There is a risk of pieces breaking off the blade. High-quality kitchen knives should never be washed in a dishwasher, but preferably rinsed quickly with water and dried immediately after use. Suitable storage solutions are those where the blades do not come into contact with other metal objects.
