Wusthof 10" Steel with Loop

The Wusthof 10" Sharpening Steel is an excellent tool that should last a lifetime. The rod is slightly thicker than on many models and features fine, precisely machined grooves that run parallel for the length of the steel. They help push the very edge of your blade upright in just a few easy strokes. The Steel also has a magnetized tip that will catch the minute, powdery steel particles that can come loose from the edge. The wide, strong handle has a guard to protect your hand and a hanging loop. Simply wipe with a damp cloth periodically and dry well.
