The blades should only need periodic honing to maintain a sharp edge unless the point gets accidentally damaged. Hone the blades on your finest grade of sharpening media like you would a fine chisel. Maintain the flat side of the blade flat; do not hone a bevel on the flat side.
You can periodically use a fine paste wax to maintain a protective film on the handle. The blades and awl points should be kept away from moisture. If you prefer a more polished look, the original satin can be restored with a very fine non-woven abrasive pad or steel wool.
