Over time, knives become dull and naturally unaligned. Quickly realign the cutting edge with this 9 1/4-inch honing steel by Shun. The handy tool features a built-in angle on the handle that makes it easy to hone knives to the correct 16-degree Shun angle. Thanks to the hard steel used in making Shun knives, they only require honing every week or so, depending on use. As part of Shun's Classic line, the honing steel comes equipped with a premium Pakkawood handle in a ebony finish, which offers a comfortable, secure grip. Featuring durable stain-resistant steel construction, this sturdy sharpening tool promises to keep kitchen knives in razor-sharp cutting condition. Measuring 9-1/4 inches in length, the gradually diminishing circular rod has blade-honing, miniscule ridges running up and down its body. A protective steel guard keeps fingers safe during sharpening. Designed to fit comfortably in hand, a fused blend of hardwood veneers and resin comprise the unique ebony Pakkawood handle. The steel construction resists rusting and withstands years of use. Although dishwasher-safe, hand washing is recommended. Manufactured in Japan’s renowned sword-making city--Seki City; this tool includes a lifetime warranty. ---- Amy Arnold
