Shun Cutlery Sora 9 Honing Steel, Gentle Correction for Rolled Knife Edges, Smooth & Micro-Ribbed Rod, Angle Guide, Professional Japanese Honing

The Shun Cutlery 9-inch Sora Combination Honing Steel is the perfect tool to keep your kitchen knife collection in pristine condition. Housed in Seki City, the heart of the Japanese cutlery industry, Shun Fine Cutlery is dedicated to maintaining the ancient tradition of blade-making. Each knife is meticulously handcrafted by highly skilled artisans, producing blades of unparalleled quality and beauty.

Through everyday use, knife edges naturally develop tiny bends, which can make the knife feel dull when the sharpest part of the blade fails to make contact with the food. This honing steel gently realigns the edge of the blade, prolonging the knife's sharpness and ensuring optimal performance.

The stainless steel honing rod features a combination of two sides – a smooth side for weekly honing and a micro-ribbed side for monthly honing. This versatile design allows you to maintain the perfect edge on your Shun knives, whether you need a quick touch-up or a more extensive honing.

Crafted with the user's comfort in mind, the handle is made from sure-grip TPE, providing a secure and comfortable grip during the honing process. Importantly, the built-in angle guide helps you find and maintain the correct angle, ensuring the consistent sharpening of your Shun knives.

Shun's commitment to quality and tradition is evident in every aspect of their products. Leveraging both ancient artisanal techniques and modern, premium materials, the company provides Shun-quality cutlery to professional chefs and avid home cooks worldwide. The Shun Cutlery 9-inch Sora Combination Honing Steel is a testament to this dedication, empowering you to keep your knife collection in pristine condition and enhance your culinary experience.
