Product Description
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION Proper knife maintenance extends the lifespan of your knives. Caring for them is easier with the Henckels Fine Edge Pro 9" Sharpening Steel. Fabricated from high-quality stainless steel, this indispensible kitchen tool restores maximum sharpness to your knives in just seconds. Curved for comfort, the ergonomic handle is easy to grip, giving you the control you need for effective sharpening. Henckels makes essential kitchen tools every home chef needs. From steak knives to spatulas, every product offers high quality at an exceptional value. Created in 1895 by Zwilling J.A. Henckels, this value-driven brand guarantees the same durability, design and ease of use for which the global company is known. Equip your kitchen with expertise with Henckels. AMAZON.COM A classic tool that helps get the best from knives, this sharpening steel is a solidly crafted addition to any knife block. Between professional sharpenings, tiny metal fibers bend down on a blade, dulling the surface. The purpose of the sharpening steel is to straighten up those fibers, maintaining the sharpest edge possible for daily use. There's a page of instructions included for cooks who've never used one--while the correct angle is important, go slowly and you'll have the technique down before you know it. In this model, the weight is centered in the handle, which is more substantial than those on many other sharpeners, providing a nice balance for beginners. Just wipe it down as necessary--there's no need to give this tool a serious scrub. --Jill Lightner

I was a professional cook for years and I had access to the local knife sharpening company that came to service our knives. I have some beautiful knives at home and seemed inconvenient to find someone new to sharpen them . I decided to give this little steel a try . Amazing ! It put the edge back on every knife without a grinder .

I have a Henckles sharpening steel that I got 28 years ago that is starting to wear down so I thought it was time to get a new one. I received the new steel yesterday and promptly sharpened all of the knives in my house. A few strokes on each side is all it takes to keep my knives razor sharp. Having your knives sharp is much safer than a dull knife. The handle is a little smaller than my last steel, but it works just the same. For the price, you can't beat this sharpening steel.

I was expecting a better quality from Henckles than from no-name brands and I got it! Now the trick is learning to properly steel/hone the “off side” of the knife.I was able to immediately get one side razor sharp - and I mean RAZOR— but apparently I can’t get the angle correct on both sides. Despite YT videos with great instructions it takes practice. I blame myself not this honing steel. It showed me that my knives are already sharp and merely need the edges realigned — as I suspected.At $15 for this 9” honing steel I feel it’s a great price for this brand name. It looks legit and comes in a proper clamshell package with labeling you’d see at a local store…..not a brown box.

A friend has a bunch of dull knives, so I bought this for her. It's terribly unsafe to cut with a dull knife.This is a good size for her. It's not a huge "sword" like my other sharpening steels, intimidating, so I think this will work well for her. It is made by Henckels, so its good steel, and the tough plastic handle will go in her dishwasher as needed.This is a good purchase, especially for the price.

I have been expanding my set of HENCKELS "Statement" knives over time, buying them opportunistically one by one, and after a while I got this Henckels knife sharpener.No frills, sturdy, comfortable in your hand, it will not disappoint. The trick to using a knife sharpener is to hit the sweet spot and not overdo it, otherwise you have to start all over again.Also, I started sharpening my knives **every single time** before using them, no matter what. It makes an amazing difference. And it makes the sharpening quick and easy too.

Even professional knives need sharpening. This makes the job much easier and takes the guess work out of how much I should sharpen. Great product. Helps to prevent knicks and uneven sharpening seems to be avoided by using this.

This size steel works great for home kitchen knives. Feels good in my hand. Sharpens well. Excellent price point. Good deal. Maybe order a longer version for longer commercial sized knives. The steel itself is good quality and quickly puts a nice edge on my knives which we’re getting quite dull before I purchased this tool.
