## Questions & Answers

**Q: What does Miyabi's lifetime warranty include on this knife?**
A: Wear and tear.  I am not sure if it covers it if you run over if!!!

**Q: Anyone use boos mystery oil + board cream to care for handle?**
A: We do not recommend any oils or creams for the Miyabi handles.

**Q: Is the knife for right-handed users as well what sheath would you recommend with it**
A: Um... Of course it is design for right hand. The angel of the edge are different. 9 and 12 degrees. However,  it is ok for me to use it with left hand. :)The box of the knife is so beautiful that i cannot throw it. I put the knife back to the box after I use it. :). So, i don't use sheath. The edge is very sharp and thin. If you put it sheath or shelve, you need to find a suitable one for it.

**Q: Whats the Vanadium content of the alloy?**
A: 1.21 Jigawatts
