Steels made of very hard ceramics with a grain size of 1000 # for grinding and polishing all types of knives. The steel has an ergonomically shaped handle for a comfortable grip and a protective element, for safe placement on the base. Use this high-end steel made of very hard ceramic (85 HRC) for fine sharpening of the blade, for final cleaning of the knife after grinding with a grinding stone or for finishing the knives. Ceramic steel is very high quality and durable, for proper care it is enough to lightly clean it with a sponge under running water. For more thorough cleaning after frequent use, we do not recommend detergents - it will be great for you to apply a pinch of ordinary baking soda on a sponge.

How to sharpen knives with steel?

Place the target on a dry and firm surface so that it rests on the plastic anti-slip protection element at its tip. Place the knife so that the blade touches the ceramic grinding part of the steel at the correct angle (classic knives 25–30 °, damask knives 20–25 °) and move the knife blade over the surface of the steel with a free pull. If you have a sharp knife and you only want to treat it as part of regular care of a quality blade, repeat two to three times on each side of the blade. If the knife is already duller, repeat the grinding several times. After working with the steel, remove any grinding residue from the knife blade with a damp cloth.
