A good cook is nothing without sharpened knives. Use this 10-in. sharpening steel before cutting, chopping and slicing and your knives will perform at their best. The high-carbon construction and sturdy handle make it easy to use. Simply hold knives at a 45-degree angle and pull across in a swift motion a dozen or so times, alternating sides, and in seconds you'll be ready for action. Features a loop on the handle for hanging. Has it's own slot in most Wusthof knife blocks.

Wusthof's newest state of the art technology incorporates a new computer controlled method for putting the edge on Classic knives. This technology allows for an exacting edge from the tip of the knife down to the heel of the knife. With this newer precision, the knives are made sharper to 14 degrees per side for a total of 28 degrees. The knives are now sharper and this refinement increases the sharpness retention because exacting angles and edges last longer than edges sharpened by hand. The result is a knife that is 30% sharper and the ICP (Initial Cutting Performance) lasts twice as long.

Good Sharpener
by Marshall, IA

It does its job if you know how to use it. If you can hold it at a constant angle, then it will do wonders for your knifes, but otherwise you should use a more controlled method, or let someone else do it.

Great
by Ambar, NY

Works just like it's supposed to. start with some pressure for about 3-4 swipes then lighten up and speed up. brought back to life two 5 year old knives which had never had any care. i would use every month. you forget what sharp knives (real knives) feel like until you use this.

Cooking Tip From the Food Network Kitchens

Contrary to what you might think, a sharp knife is actually safer than a dull knife. The important thing to remember when chopping and cutting is to let the knife do the work for you. A sharp knife allows you to do that, but a dull knife requires you to exert more pressure to get the job done, which means your hand has a greater chance of slipping.
