F. Dick 12" Dickoron Sapphire Cut Sharpening Steel: Oval



Possibly the best steel ever made.
I am a professional chef and recently purchased this steel. I would have paid three times as much. It keeps a razor edge on all my knives. As long as you have a pretty sharpe edge to begin with you will never have to take you knife to a stone again. I also bought the F.Dick micro and the combination of the two save me from ever using a stone. Absolute must buy for anyone trying to keep there knives sharp. I will mention I only use Japanese knives. Have not tried this steel on German steel such as wustofs and house hold knives.

Upgrade your knives with a swipe of this great steel!
If you've been using the little round steel that comes with every knife set, you don't know what you've been missing! This is a serious steel and delivers seriously straight, seriously sharp edges. It's on the pricey side, but it delivers. For the more budget-minded, consider the Victorinox oval steel: Victorinox Diamond Honing Steel 12-Inch Oval with Solid Core, Black Plastic Handle

Absolutely the best steel ever made
I am also a professional chef and i actually work with Thomas. I think that says enough about the quality of this steel. We work three feet apart and i still felt the need to have my own. I recently bought a misono 440 and took it from a 50/50 to a 70/30 using only the steel. With the combination of this steel and the micro i too have no need to take my knives to the stone. While i use mostly japanese knives i have a wusthof ikon santoku, and it does a great job on that. Every professional chef should have one.
