Victorinox 10" Round Regular Cut Sharpening Steel with Black Handle

The Victorinox 10 inch Regular Cut Sharpening Steelby Victorinox has a round steel and a comfortable, durable black plastic handle with a finger guard for added safety.

Regularly caring for your blades is the best way to keep them factory-sharp and performing at their best, resulting in easier use and fewer accidents.

At 10 inches in length, this steel is designed to restore the edge to small and medium kitchen knives. When selecting a steel, choose one that is 2 inches longer than the knife you wish to sharpen.

A sharpening steel does not really "sharpen" the knife. Using a steel properly actually takes the rolled over edge off of a knife - in effect straightening, or realigning the knife blade, restoring its effectiveness.
