The WÜSTHOF 12" Oval Honing Steel is used for exceptional honing of your knives. Even high-quality knives. such as those made by WÜSTHOF. gradually dull due to use: to compensate. a honing steel should be used regularly. A few strokes of both sides of the knife over the honing steel will help you to maintain the sharpness of a good blade.

Adam M. ★★★★★

The fine texture on this steel grabs the blade edge perfectly without being too aggressive. I've noticed my chef's knife slicing through tomatoes with much less effort after just a few passes. The 12-inch length gives me plenty of room to work with even my larger blades.

Nicholas ★★★★★

The oval shape really guides my hand at a consistent angle, and it brought my chef's knife back to shaving sharp in under a minute.

Samuel ★★★★★

My knives feel noticeably sharper after just a few passes on this oval steel, and the 12-inch length gives me plenty of room to work with even my larger blades. The honing action is smooth and even, which makes the whole routine quick and effortless.
