Ironing Steel - Steel - Oval - 30cm - 100g

Oval honing steel for long-lasting knife sharpness

This 30 cm oval honing steel from Victorinox is made of high-quality steel with an ergonomic black plastic handle. Its oval shape and fine honing surface are designed to maintain and revive the knife edge, ensuring your knives stay sharp longer without frequent sharpening. The honing steel removes minimal material from the blade while effectively realigning the edge.

Ideal for professional chefs, butchers, and food enthusiasts who want to keep their knives in optimal condition with minimal effort.

Precise maintenance of the knife edge

The oval shape of the honing steel provides a larger contact area against the knife edge, meaning more effective maintenance with fewer strokes. The extra fine cut of the steel ensures that you do not remove unnecessary material from the knife, but instead smooth out microscopic irregularities on the edge. This significantly prolongs the knife's lifespan, as you will need to sharpen it less frequently. The handle is designed to provide a secure grip during use, even if your hands are wet or greasy.

How to get the most out of your honing steel

To achieve the best results, only 4-6 strokes with moderate pressure are required. Hold the honing steel vertically with the tip against a stable surface and draw the knife down along the steel at an angle of about 20 degrees, alternating on each side of the knife. This technique realigns the edge without removing too much material. With regular use after each cooking session, you can significantly reduce the need for professional sharpening and always have sharp knives ready for use.
