## Description

Product Description Grooved rod for honing knives. Black composite handle. Thoughtfully crafted and meticulously designed in Germany, manufactured in China. Family owned for seven generations, WÜSTHOF was founded in Solingen, Germany over 200 years ago. ;Many chefs prefer sharpening steel to a slotted sharpener or whetstone for keeping their knife collection in top cutting shape. This particular Wüsthof steel features a nine-inch rod, grooved for ease of use, which is made of magnetic steel that attracts metal fibers during the sharpening process (thus preventing them from flying all over the kitchen workspace). The black composite handle provides a good grip and features a reasonable bolster to help prevent the knife blade from hitting the knuckles. While this model does not have a hanging loop, the steel should fit handily into a provided slot in most wooden storage blocks. The sharpening steel is made in Solingen, Germany, the home of Wüsthof cutlery since 1814, and is covered by a lifetime warranty. --Ann Bieri. desertcart.com Many chefs prefer sharpening steel to a slotted sharpener or whetstone for keeping their knife collection in top cutting shape.

Review: Good value - good quality and works well
Review: Awesome carbon steel knife honing and Sharpening rod - I researched this honing rod and found that it is highly rated and recommended for carbon steel knives. I've been a knife sharpener for my father since I was 9 years old. He used fillet blades in his work. I know a good honing rod when I use it. I've my own knives and this sharpened them amazingly well. I've carbon and stainless alloy steel knives, this got them extremely sharp and is a superior rod. Highly recommended for kitchen to outdoor knives and carbon to stainless steel alloy knives. Awesome product!!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice.
*by J***Z on December 2, 2025*

I'm very much new to quality knives and their care. This was very intuitive to use, and it does its job well. I use my knife fairly lightly compared to a true enthusiast, so I can't speak to long-term or heavy duty use. However, for a casual home cook that likes nice stuff, this is great.
