Product Description:
Dull blades not only give poor results and require more effort on the part of the chef, they are also far more likely to be the cause of injury than sharp blades. A sharp blade is not nearly as likelly to slide off the side of a vegetable and into your fingers. Keep those edges honed!
Amazon.com Review:
A classic tool that helps get the best from knives, this sharpening steel is a solidly crafted addition to any knife block. Between professional sharpenings, tiny metal fibers bend down on a blade, dulling the surface. The purpose of the sharpening steel is to straighten up those fibers, maintaining the sharpest edge possible for daily use. This model is lightweight, with a flared handle and a tapered edge. It's extremely comfortable and well balanced for experienced users, but beginners may have an easier time with a more substantial weight. Just wipe it down as necessary--there's no need to give this tool a serious scrub. --Jill Lightner

Rating: - Works great
Works great! replaces my diamond dust one that does not work good anymore.
Going back to a steel was like night and day.
Rating: - This is the best
I have Henckels knife which I enjoy using.
I did try other brand's sharpening tool, but it just wasn't as good as original Hanckels. This thing is made in Germany!
Since I paid good sum of money for my knives, it was worth extra money to buy good sharpner. And this really is great price. I saw similar Henckels sharpner at Target for $25.
I am very happy.

- The Sharper Edge
This sharpening steel enables me to put the final edge on my knives.A dull knife leads to kitchen accidents, and this helps prevent them.The handle is user friendly, and a few strokes are all that is needed.
Rating: - Simple
Works well and it's (relatively) cheap.What more need I say?Good size for a smaller kitchen too.
Rating: - Steel sharpens Steel
It is what it says it is and is great for putting that finished edge on knives. About 6 or 7 passes on each side keeps my wifes favorite kitchen knife razor keen. Also used it on my pocket knife, cuts through boxes like butter.
