The Honing Steel
The 10 inch fine grit honing steel is the home kitchen sweet spot - long enough to handle most chef's knives and santokus, compact enough to store easily. A fine grit rod realigns the edge with a lighter touch, producing a polished finish ideal for knives already sharpened to a fine edge. A few strokes before each use keeps your knives performing at their best between sharpenings. Messermeister honing steels are made in Germany to the same standard as their knives.
Care & Maintenance
Wipe clean with a damp cloth after use
Dry immediately
Store on a magnetic strip or in a knife block
Do not use on Japanese knives with hardness above 60 HRC - use a ceramic rod instead
