Excellent value, does the job.Apr 10, 2009
By YSC
"ciac"
I was a bit skeptical when placing the order since the price was quite low, and I was not sure if it's going to suffer from quality issues or if it's going to do the job.
However, the product arrived and appeared to be well made (I'm a bit obsessive about trivial details, and I do prefer walnut over plastic), and it sharpened my generic kitchen knife (no fancy japanese hardened steel knives here) with just a few swipes. It is also quite long enough for my knives without being too long and unwieldy. For my knife it appeared to take off some metal as some fine shards did show, and after longer use there was a thin coat of grey powder in its grooves (that can be cleaned off easily).
The walnut handle/guard has a reasonably good grip. It seems to do the job quick and well without making a fuss. It is also fairly hefty and feels right with the sharpening motion. It is a no-nonsense tool that has a very reasonable price. I'm very happy with it.

Warning: GroovedSep 05, 2009
By Thomas Nehil This is a grooved, rather than a straight steel. This means it is taking significant portions of metal off your edge with each pass (that's the job of a sharpening tool, not a honing tool!). The grooves risk significant damage to your blade. The grooving is sort of apparent from the photo, but it should be made more explicit. Consider yourself forewarned!

Good value for low price.Jan 30, 2009
By High Standards
"Steve"
Does the job as advertised. The wood handle could be a bit longer. As it is, suits smaller hands well. Sharpens fine knives easily. The grind on the steel seems just right.

A much improved sharpening steelDec 27, 2008
By Louis Alexander
"loualex"
This was a replacement for a steel that came with a knife set 27 years ago. The handle is heavier and easiet to grip and the steel itself does a great job of putting an edge on knives.
