A must for anyone who loves their kitchen knives: A knife that is not sharp enough can be sharpened quickly and easily with a sharpening steel. With a little practice, blades that have become blunt can be sharpened in no time at all by gently pulling them over the rod. Sharpening steels are available in different materials so that, depending on the requirement, a precise result is always achieved and as little as possible is removed from the blade.
