The sharpening steel has a highly carbonized and hard chrome-plated steel blade. Its 23cm length is used for rapid, powerful sharpening of different types of knives. The corrugated surface gives optimum results for sharpening blades. With a hardness of approximately 62 HRC this sharpening steels are relatively insensitive to damage. The black plastic handle provides a secure grip when you sharpen your kitchen knives, scissors and other blades. The rounded shape, non-slip surface and the protective rim of the handle of the sharpening steel ensure that your fingers will not slip when sharpening. At the end of the handle there is a hole on which you can hang the utensil. Sharpening enables you to use your knives for longer, because drawing the blade across the sharpening steel sharpens them and cutting force is noticeably improved. With this handy tool sharpener, your ZWILLING knives will slice easily through meat, vegetables and other ingredients you want to cut to create delicious dishes.
