DMTDS2E 12-Inch Diamond Steel Sharpening Rod, Extra Fine Grit , Black

does the job

Super portable work Works perfectly. Amazing product and fast service. great value for the buck fast shipping and the product is satisfactorily functional for it's intended purpose. I think Perhaps I need one more.

Very good value for money at the current discounted price - £26.60. Works very well with my large Victorinox kitchen knives, as does DMT's Diamond Bench Stone Extra Fine (solid metal plate type). A few very light strokes with the sharpening steel puts an edge on the large Victorinox kitchen knives that will cleanly slice through 43 GSM newsprint paper. Recommended.

as a pro chef I have used one of these steels for about 10 yrs and it is brilliant . my current one is the red ring fine steel and I use it to keep my knives honed and very very sharp. when I need to put an edge on a knife I use a steel then a standard diamond steel then finish with this and it does a superb job. Whilst I use it frequently it takes nothing off the knife unlike cheap steels which quickly ruin knives with a large bow in the blade. expensive yes but well worth it in both quality of job done and longer life of knives.

This product was meant to put an extra fine edge on my filleting knives, after one day it had several rust spots on it which rendered it useless, total waste of money, £46 down the drain!

i was sent a used item when i paid for a new item.was going to send it back but a friend bought it from me.
