Inspired by the most emblematic models from Christofle, the sterling silver knife is a real masterpiece. With the finesse of its blade and the meticulous work carried out on its handle, it perfectly finds its place on a reception table or daily and sublimates these moments of sharing. Beyond its functionality and practicality, the knife in silver metal is characterized by an elegant and refined look that goes wonderfully with all the dishes tasted.
Silver knives can oxidize or blacken over time, so it's important to look after them properly to maintain their appearance and functionality. Use warm, soapy water and a soft cloth to clean silver knives after each use. Do not use abrasive products that could scratch or damage the silver. Avoid putting your silver knives in the dishwasher, as detergents can damage silver, and exposure to heat and humidity can cause oxidation. You can also use silver-specific cleaning products, such as silver flash. These products will help remove stains and oxidation.
It is important to store your silver knives correctly to avoid scratches, damage and corrosion. Avoid storing your silver knives with other metal utensils, as this can lead to scratches and damage. Instead, store them separately in a dedicated drawer, or better still, in one of our trunks, cases or modules. To avoid scratches, you can use blade guards for each knife. These are often made of plastic or felt, and can be easily slipped over the blade. Avoid storing your silver knives in damp places, such as basements or garages. Moisture can cause corrosion and rust.
There are several products you can use to revive tarnished or oxidized silver knives.
Silver flash: For fast cleaning. By immersing cutlery (except knife blades) for a few seconds in this product, traces of oxidation disappear, and they immediately regain their lustre.
Polishing products for silver: There are specific polishing products for silver, such as silver-impregnated cloths or polishing pastes. Follow the product instructions to use the product correctly and revive your silver knives.
Yes, sterling silver knives can oxidize and tarnish over time. Silver is a metal that reacts naturally with oxygen in the air and humidity, which can cause oxidation and tarnishing. This can occur even if sterling silver knives are not used for an extended period. It is important to clean sterling silver knives regularly to avoid an accumulation of dirt and substances that can contribute to oxidation. In addition, storing sterling silver knives in a dry place away from moisture can help prevent tarnishing, especially in our chests, cases and modules.

Properly sharpening a knife is crucial. Use a sharpening stone or honing rod at a 20-degree angle, gliding the blade across in smooth motions. Repeat on both sides.
