This 23cm sharpening steel from Zwilling is the everyday companion to a good kitchen knife. A few light strokes realign the edge, so the blade keeps cutting cleanly for longer between proper sharpenings.

The 23cm length suits most chef’s, utility and slicing knives and is easy to handle at the worktop. It is made in Germany and pairs naturally with the Zwilling Pro and Gourmet ranges.

Lucy's Verdict

A defined step in the sharpening process — useful when matched to the right edge, unnecessary when it is not. The Zwilling 23cm Sharpening Steel (1001783) is our honing steel option in this part of the edit.
