Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Would recommend for sharpening pocket knives. The ribs are straight and even, it keeps the knives sharp. Once you know how honing works, it only takes a few streaks and your knives will be sharper then ever before.

This is our first honing steel we own and are very pleased with it. There are tons of honing steels on the market, but once you learn to trust victorinox, it's hard to pick anything else.



Cons

It has no looping end and thus is not useful to me for my application. Fix the description or risk further bad reviews.

Very durable for sharpening knives and easy to clean.


Super easy to use and the knives are always sharp.

It didn't really help hone any of my knives as i started upgrading.

    If you’re using knives daily professionally you may prefer the same steel only longer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    It’s a bit shorter than i prefer


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have to position the rod a certain way so i dont go over it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The etching is pretty far down on the rod but i still find it to be a nuisance unnecessary being how the name is also on the handle


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    All my kitchen knives came very sharp


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Plastic handle is molded to the sharpening steel and shows no signs of wanting to come apart


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The steel has very fine sharp grooves that sharpen my cheaper knives to a sharp edge with slight burr


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I have used this honing rod after sharpening my chef’s knife several times and has not failed in honing the stainless steel
