Do not leave it soaking or store it while damp. If surface rust develops, remove it with a suitable scouring pad and renew the oil coating.

Allow the tool to cool before cleaning, and protect your hands when handling hot metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUse appropriate protection around hot cookware and grilling tools. Metal handles can heat up, even when they provide extra reach. Keep food-contact surfaces clean between raw and cooked foods.
