New Knife - Does It Require Immersion in a Mikveh?

AA

Question

Hello, Rabbi. I bought a new knife. Am I required to immerse it before using it for the first time? Thank you.

Answer

Shalom uvrakhah,

If a company owned by non-Jews made the knife, and it is used for food - it should be immersed.

With blessing,

Hillel Meirs
