The economical F.Dick EuroCut Sharpening Steel features a fine grit designed for knives that are only slightly worn, to straighten the edge. They are also ideal as a finishing tool, after using a more abrasive grit, creating a super fine cutting edge. 

The knife's cutting edge can be kept sharp for a very long time with a sharpening steel with a fine cut until regrinding is required. With constant use, you can maintain the very fine knife cutting edge before you need to use a sharpening steel with more abrasion. It can also be followed with a polished steel. 

The round rod shape is one of the easiest to use and is light in weight. This makes it ideal for beginners. Also available in 12" Inch round.
