The city of Solsona in Spain is world renowned for its knife making industry, a tradition which dates back to the 16^th century. Pallares Solsona has been family owned and run since 1917 and throughout its history has aimed to use the best quality of materials available.

Care
Carbon steel is a stronger and harder cutting blade than stainless steel, it is also easier to sharpen. However, it does require extra care and may oxidise if not correctly maintained. 

• To avoid rusting, it is recommended that carbon steel blades are kept well oiled. To clean, wipe the blade with a damp cloth and immediately dry and put away.
• Do not soak in water and do not place in the dishwasher. To reduce the frequency of re-sharpening, wooden chopping boards are recommended. 
  
• If your carbon steel blade is beginning to rust, use a scouring pad and and acid, such as vinegar and gently rub it on the affected area. After the rust has been removed, dry the blade, re-sharpen and oil to prevent future rusting.
