Product Description

A beautifully crafted honing steel that will elevate any kitchen. Perfect for honing your knives like a highly-skilled artisan. Faux wood grain in blue and black streaks adorn the balanced, durable octagonal handles, which are each secured with a single mosaic rivet as a luxurious finishing touch. This quality honing steel makes a sensational wedding, graduation, or housewarming gift.

Knife not included

  • The 9-inch Honing Steel features a half-grooved and half-smooth finish.
  • Forged from 67 layers of Cangshan proprietary X-7 Damascus Steel.
  • The grooved, coarse side of the steel is used for regular maintenance, to realign the microscopic teeth on the blade’s edge.
  • The smooth, fine side of the steel is used to finish the edge with a few swipes of the blade after honing on the grooved side.
  • For average use, the grooved side can be used weekly, and the smooth side, daily. Regularly honed knives will retain their edges longer before needing to be sharpened.
  • G-10 fiberglass octagonal handle
  • Hand wash only

    Excellent small Nakiri

    Great small knife- excellent balance and functionality. Very sharp and really like the magnetic sheath. Have lots of Cangshan and really like it.

    Beautiful & functional

    This knife is super sharp right out of the box. I made razor thin carrot slices with almost no effort. The pieces didn't get all stuck on the blade. I can already tell this is going to be a workhorse. I wasn't sure if I'd like the edges on the handle but it's comfortable. The magnetic cover feels substantial, something actually worth keeping. Beautiful presentation in the box.
