Shun DM0790W Classic Blonde 9" Combination Honing Steel

As your knife contacts the cutting board, the razor-sharp edge naturally bends over just a little bit. The edge is still sharp, but it’s not the sharpest part that’s moving through the food. The answer is frequent honing with the Shun Classic Blonde Combination Honing Steel. It gently realigns the edge of the blade, prolonging the knife's sharpness. This attractive honing steel has two surfaces: a smooth one for weekly honing, and a micro-ribbed one for monthly honing. How often you hone depends on your usage, of course.

• Honing helps maintain your knife's sharpness longer
• Two honing surfaces, one for weekly use and one for monthly honing, depending on use
• Sturdy stainless steel construction
• Pakkawood handle in a beautiful light, natural finish to match the Classic Blonde series; durable, moisture resistant
