Effective Honing
Customers have mixed opinions about the effectiveness of this honing steel for sharpening knives. While some report excellent results in restoring and maintaining knife edges, others caution that it can remove too much metal and potentially damage knives if not used carefully.
Fine Grade
Customers generally have positive opinions about the fine grade steel's quality, with some expressing satisfaction and others mentioning its great value as a final sharpening tool. However, there are concerns regarding potential misrepresentation of branding on the product.
Highlights
Quality
Great steel for shaping and for quick sharpening.
Great product cause i sharpen a lot of knives.
A word of warning be prepared for the first few swipes, hone lightly it does not take much.
It is not an ordinary sharpening steel, i have one of those and it is next to worthless.
Competitiveness
It is branded forschner which apparently has some corporate affiliation with victorinox.
I just received this sharpening tool, and was surprised to see it is not a victorinox brand product.
