This will help in keeping the edge of the knife sharp and to be ready for the next job.

Please store blades right after use to prevent from getting rust. 

To be kept in dry cool place, free from damp or moisture. You may also use multi tool with saw blade guards or blade cases to keep them safe and organized.
