Wusthof Sharpening Steel 23cm

The Wusthof Sharpening Steel will help keep your knives sharp for lasting
cutting pleasure.

Honing Steel for exceptional honing of your knives. Even high-quality knives,
such as those made by Wusthof, gradually dull due to use: to compensate, a
honing steel should be used regularly. A few strokes of both sides of the knife
over the sharpening steel will help you to maintain the sharpness of a good
blade.

Steel sharpening rods are ideal for straightening out the burr on a knife blade
and maintaining its sharpness. They do not achieve an actual basic sharpening,
ie the sharpening steel does not sharpen an already blunt knife.

Always clean your sharpener after use. Clean with a damp cloth or mild brush,
and wipe dry. Do not rinse with water.
