Wusthof Honing Steel 'Classic Black' 26cm

The Wüsthof Classic Black Sharpening Steel 26cm is your best friend if you enjoy cooking regularly. Even the best knives will dull over time, so it's good to use a sharpening steel regularly. By honing your knives, you push the burrs that have formed during your previous cutting task back into the correct alignment. How do you choose the right length for a sharpening steel? A sharpening steel should be at least as long as the longest knife you intend to hone with it.

The Classic Black series from Wüsthof

The Classic series has been Wüsthof's best-selling collection for generations, featuring knives precisely forged from a single piece of steel. These knives have stainless steel rivets for extra durability and a full bolster for optimal balance and safety. This line is made from high-quality German steel X50CrMoV15 and has a hardness of 59 Rockwell.

Razor-sharp thanks to PEtec

Thanks to 'Wüsthof Precision Edge Technology,' the knife remains sharp for a very long time. This means that these knives are sharpened with laser precision. As a result, your new knife leaves the factory razor-sharp, making it easy to resharpen. With a hardness of 58 Rockwell, the knife is also easy to keep sharp. To do this, regularly run your knife along a sharpening steel.

Balance and hygiene

This knife is made from a single laser-cut piece of steel. The handle is seamlessly integrated with the blade, preventing dirt from accumulating and ensuring the knife remains very hygienic. The handle is made of plastic and secured with rivets. There is a bolster between the handle and the blade, which protects your fingers from slipping. All in all, the ergonomic and durable design makes for a very comfortable and manageable knife.
