Dive Knife Care

Keep your scuba diving knives in top shape

All stainless steel knives will show some signs of rust due to their high carbon content. (Carbon creates tensile strength.)

Care After the Dive

After each use, rinse well with fresh water and dry outside of sheath.

Storage

Coat blade with a light layer of oil or silicone.

If you have any specific enquiry about how to care for your dive gear, please feel free to contact Scuba Doctor Service and Repairs by email to scubadoc@scubadoctor.com.au or by a telephone call to 03 5985 5440.

Never hang your dive gear on the line of fire.
