    • Great sharpener
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
I purchased this sharpener first time in Aug 2020 and now, 2.5 years later, it's still working. In January 2023 I tried another one of a different brand that became blunted just in a couple of months. So I'm purchasing this one again.

    • Works much better than other steels I've owned
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
This steel works much better than other steels I've owned. Not sure why that is, but it is true. It's long and a bit heavy so that may be a problem for smaller folks. If I lost it or someone stole it, I would definitely buy another one to replace it.

    • Very nice quality for the price.
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
This equals honing rods that I've spent double on in the past. I bought this as part of a gift for a friend and got to use it a few times, it's perfect. Great length, nice and sturdy, and will likely last a lifetime. It doesn't feel as cheap as I imagined it might when I purchased it. I showed my friend how to use it and he is enjoying it. For those who might not be aware - this is not a sharpener, so it will not actually sharpen your knife, which is a big misconception because honing rods like this often advertise as "sharpeners". Yes it will realign your blade and make it perform better, but it's not actually sharpening it. When you use a knife the very edge of your blade will fold over and make it feel dull, this tool really just realigns the folded edge, it doesn't really make it sharper. That being said, if you use this after every time you use your knives then they will stay sharper for much longer because if you continue to use a knife with a folded edge then you'll develop warps and chips, which will actually dull your knife faster. My rule of thumb is to use this tool after every single time I use my knives, I do between 4-8 passings on each side and my knives stay sharp for much longer than if I didn't hone them regularly. I would look up videos on how to use this tool properly, it's easy to use but if you do misuse it then you will end up damaging your blade rather than honing - though don't be too afraid of using it, even if you damage your knife then it very likely can be fixed. I've fixed some seriously rusted out dull knives that most people would throw away. ... show more

    • For Maintaining an edge, Not Sharpening Dull Knives!
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
The item description is misleading since a honing steel is not for sharpening a dull knife. It's used after you sharpen a knife (like with a whetstone) in order to align the tiny imperfections along the edge, and periodically to maintain a knife. My freshly sharpened chef knife was sharp, but after a few strokes on each side with this steel, I could feel the improvement. If you take good care of your sharp knives (no abuse, hand wash, dry immediately, maintain the edge) you won't have to sharpen them very often. I'll give the product 5 stars because it's solid and performs just as I expected, but the product description should be updated. Also, 12" refers to the exposed steel portion. With the handle, the overall length is over 17"! ... show more

    • Very nice steel. A little long.
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
Larger than the ones I have been using. This steel is about 18 inches long with the handle. At first I was a slightly perplexed because it would not fit freely in my knife drawer and stuck out like a sore thumb when I put it in my knife block. I then decided to hang it from the pot rack over our kitchen island. It has a hook to do so. Problem solved. As far as the quality, ease of use and ability to put a razor sharp edge on a knife, outstanding, wonderful. Keep in mind a steel is not designed to sharpen a dull knife, they are designed to put a razor like edge on a already sharp knife, you may need a two or three stage knife sharpener to get any nicks and dings out and straighten the edge of any knife you have that is very dull, THEN use the steel. But of course I use good quality knifes like J.A Henckel, Wusthofs, Giesser, and believe it or not some of my favorites for maintaining a really sharp edge with the ability to slice a soft tomato easily,, Chicago Cutlery. Anyway you will not be disappointed with this steel. I recommend. ... show more

    • Treads quickly wear down
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
My Dad had a sharpening steel for 30 years which he used daily in his market. This one here must be made of softer steel because the treads are already wearing down and I may have used it10 times.

    • my new favourite sharpener
Size: 12 Inch Color: Black
I've been using a diamond combination sharpening kor for years, it's stones ranging fian from 8000 grit. It's great because it guides the edge and holds the bevel very steadily throughout. For that one convenience, the trade-off is added time, a goofy storage bag, and contact areas are small and spread out, making it often difficult to distinguish one from the next. Enough mucking about, cooking doesn't often allow time to sharpen on the fly with that setup. So i ordered this honing steel, and it far outperforms what I'd expected. 2 fairly equally dull knives, 2 different sharpeners. 1 minute on each. The results: the kit offers lower grits, so knocking out the chips and dings are where it shone. But for actually sharpening, this rod is now going to be my go to tool for anything smaller than a Ka-Bar. ... show more
