Wüsthof Honing Steel 26cm

This 26 cm WÜSTHOF honing steel is the maintenance tool for a knife that is sharp but no longer feels perfectly crisp. A traditional steel primarily straightens and realigns a rolled edge rather than grinding a new one, so it removes far less material than the coarse diamond option. Used regularly and lightly, it can delay the point at which a forged Western knife needs true sharpening.
