Max the “Magpie.”
Koi Knives was born (and remains) in South Australia and the bird we see every morning both within and beyond the CBD is the Magpie.
Max is an omnivore who enjoys dining on just about anything… mince meat, Vegemite sandwiches, seeds, oats and many more.
“Black and white gentlemen, trotting self-importantly
across the green swards of the lawn
as water plays, cascading from my hose.
They wait the foolish worms who,
suffering delusions of rain falling,
rise to greet the spray.
One stroller cocks his head; eye glitters,
and he swoops.
The others mutter grievances
then rise to trees to carol in the new-fledged sun.”
Valerie Volk

Maintenance
A very good question. Here’s a short answer.
What not to do?
DO NOT put it in the dishwasher or leave it in a sink full of water as this can lead to corrosion and damaged blades. We also recommend against cutting on a glass chopping board as this is terrible for the blade (can lead to chipping), and please DO NOT use Pull Through Sharpeners.
What to do?
Learn how to use a honing rod to keep the knifes edge aligned and keep it sharper longer.
I recommend having it sharpened by a professional sharpener (ideally on a whetstone or a watercooled system to stop the steel heating). How often varies depending on usage however most people do it every 6-12 months.
Storage?-Please store your knives either on a wall magnet or in a knife block, if you are going to store them in the drawers please use edge gurads.
