Sheffield Made Sharpening Steel, Rosewood Handle

Sheffield Made Sharpening Steel, Rosewood Handle
£45.00
Ex Tax: £37.50
A high-quality sharpening steel, produced in Sheffield by Taylor's Eye Witness. Great for honing all kinds of kitchen knives to a true edge. The easiest way to use a sharpening steel is to hold it vertically against a board and then, holding your knife with the  sharp edge pointing downwards, run your blade down one side several times at about 22 degrees to the steel, then repeat on the other side (there are lots of how-to videos out there for guidance). Steel length 30cm.

Care Advice

Hand wash and dry well with a soft cloth immediately after use. Ensure the knife is never left sitting in wet conditions. High quality stainless steel knives will often include a high-carbon element, to increase performance. These kind of stainless steels are not 100% rust proof, and will require careful handling. A sharp knife is a safe knife — use a honing rod to keep a fine edge, and sharpen with a stone when necessary.

  • Materials Carbon steel, rosewood, and brass
