Despite its name, a sharpening steel doesn’t actually sharpen, unless it’s a “diamond” steel, but it does perform the vital task of realigning a knife’s edge, which can bend through contact with a cutting surface or other hard object. This steel, a tapered rod of hard steel alloy, works as well as any, if not better, since its oval shape exposes more surface to the blade. It features a finger guard and a hanging ring on its handle, and its grooved, black synthetic handle provides a fist-firm grip. Using the steel often–ideally, every time you haul out a knife–prevents a blade from becoming dull and prolongs the intervals between professional sharpenings. Since the rule of thumb is that a steel should be at least as long as the knife blade being drawn across it, this steel’s length is sufficient for most household knives. –Fred Brack
