Featuring a durable steel-alloy rod with extra fine grit, a synthetic handle with finger guard for safety, and a generous 12-inch length, it ensures precise edge maintenance without blade wear.

## Description

desertcart.com This honing steel serves a vital role by realigning, or "resetting," kitchen knives' edges, which bend this way and that when contacting a cutting surface. (Often called a sharpening steel, or "butcher" steel, a steel doesn't actually sharpen a knife--unless it's a "diamond" steel.) Consisting of a rod of hard steel-alloy with a tough synthetic handle and a steel finger guard, this steel works well and looks better than most hanging close at hand, where you can employ it frequentlyideally each time you use a knife. That prevents a blade from becoming dull and prolongs intervals between professional sharpenings. The rule is that a steel should be at least as long as the knife blade being drawn across it, and this steel's 12-inch rod hones all household knives. The steel carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack Product Description PRODUCT DESCRIPTION For most home chefs the sharpening steel will realign the edge and remove any niche or burr. desertcart.COM This honing steel serves a vital role by realigning, or "resetting," kitchen knives' edges, which bend this way and that when contacting a cutting surface.

Review: Great product - Works great!
Review: made a huge difference on my knives - I have a set of J.A. Henckels "Pro S" knives and have struggled to keep them sharp. Without fully understanding what goes into keeping a knife sharp, I bought a sharpening kit containing different diamond and sandstone surfaces. This kit removes actual metal from your knife every time you use it. It did make my knives sharp, but the benefit never lasted more than one or two uses. This lead me to do more research and learn about the important practice of honing your knife to keep the edge straight. I bought this honing steel and it made a dramatic improvement in the cutting ability of my knives. I now understand that I should sharpen my knives once or twice a year but I should hone them every time I use them. Honing doesn't remove any metal, so it won't wear out the blade. In my testing, 5 passes along each side of the blade (10 total swipes) is enough to make my Pro S Chef's knife cut like it is brand new every time. This particular steel has a very high quality feel and it also is very long so my long chef's knife doesn't run out of runway. I wish I had learned about this a long time ago!

## Features

- For most home chefs the sharpening steel will realign the edge and remove any niche or burr.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Make your old knives new again
*by R***K on May 27, 2021*

I spent quite a bit of money on Zwilling pro knives in hopes I would finally have a set of knives that cut like the knives I saw on all the cooking shows. I bought the 8" chefs knife, the 6" utility knife, and the paring knife. I was totally impressed with all of these knives when I first received them. They were scary sharp. I used these knives daily and they slowly dulled over time (as all knives do). I used my left over sharpening rod from a previous set of knives to sharpen my Zwilling knives. I was disappointed that I could never get them as sharp as they were when I first bought them. I mistakenly believed it was a flaw of the knives. My last ditch effort to avoid buying a whole set of new knives was to buy an actual Zwilling JA Henckels sharpening rod and see if it made a difference. I was truly stunned at the difference a quality sharpening rod made. I feel like I have a new set of knives. They may even be sharper now than when I first bought them. My fingers feel fear when I bust out my knives. I still have all of them....as of the date of this review.
