New Knife - Does It Require Immersion in a Mikveh?
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
