Love the extra length on this steel. I feel like the knives are is better shape when I use the 12" steel vs. 10". I think it has to do with the consistent travel of the blade down the edge. Perfect for working out any rough edges or burrs on your blades.

It super important to use a honing steel to keep your knives performing their best in between annual sharpening. If you are uncertain how to use one you can simply watch a how to video and within minutes you'll be realigning your knives and you'll be impressed with the difference it makes. This sharpening steel has a bit of extra length at 12 inches and an oval shape as opposed to round which provides more surface area for the edge to have contact with.

A honing steel when used properly can help to maintain the cutting edge of your knives, keeping them more efficient and safer to use. The 12" steel is longer providing a more effective surface area.

This 12 inch rod, is perfect for honing and easily removes niches and scratches on the blade. The oval design, allows for greater surface area, achieving excellent results with far fewer strokes. This is a must for anyone serious about keeping their knives sharp and ready to use. Haven't had to have my knives sharpened in almost a year, since learning how to properly use this steel. Worth the effort, and plenty of on line tutorial videos available.
