Premier Combination Honing Steel 9 for Rolled Knife Edges, Smooth & Micro-Ribbed Rod, Angle Guide, Professional Japanese Honing

The Shun Cutlery 9-inch Premier Combination Honing Steel is the perfect tool to keep your kitchen knife collection in pristine condition. Knife edges naturally develop tiny bends through everyday use, which can make the knife feel dull when the sharpest part of the blade is not making contact with the food. This knife sharpening steel gently realigns the edge of the blade, prolonging the knife's sharpness.

The honing steel is made from stainless steel and features two sides – a smooth side for weekly honing and a micro-ribbed side for monthly honing. The durable, walnut-finished Pakkawood handle is comfortable to use for both left- and right-handed users, and it includes a built-in angle guide to help you hone your Shun knives at the correct angle.
