F Dick 7598330 Dickoron Sharpening Steel 12"L sapphire cut oval

Works great on my soft everyday knives, a Victorinox and a Kiwi. It sounds weird to recommend a $90 steel and a $7 knife, but the combo is just so good! It blows away the MAC ceramic rod and a Dexter diamond rod I have.

I am a professional chef and recently purchased this steel. I would have paid three times as much. It keeps a razor edge on all my knives. As long as you have a pretty sharpe edge to begin with you will never have to take you knife to a stone again. I also bought the F.Dick micro and the combination of the two save me from ever using a stone. Absolute must buy for anyone trying to keep there knives sharp. I will mention I only use Japanese knives. Have not tried this steel on German steel such as wustofs and house hold knives.

Perfect to help bring back the edge when cutting meats. I cut meat for a living and this is the right tool for the job.

If you cut meat or cook regularly and like to keep your knife working efficiently, this is the steel to get. A few passes on this realigns the edge of your knife and makes cutting or slicing much easier. F. Dick is the best out there when it comes to steels. They are fantastic in terms of quality and longevity. They’re expensive, but they work and definitely don’t disappoint.

Yes works good for me and my work

I am also a professional chef and i actually work with Thomas. I think that says enough about the quality of this steel. We work three feet apart and i still felt the need to have my own. I recently bought a misono 440 and took it from a 50/50 to a 70/30 using only the steel. With the combination of this steel and the micro i too have no need to take my knives to the stone. While i use mostly japanese knives i have a wusthof ikon santoku, and it does a great job on that. Every professional chef should have one.

I have both US 20 degree and Japanese 15 degree edge blades. The US blades I have sharpened by a professional locally once a year and hone them after every use with the 7-5983-30-3 Dickoron. The edges stay sharp for most the year. Occasionally I tidy the edges up with a cross blade ceramic stone. The Dickoron far outperforms any of the major brand round steels I have used in the past. I retain the old steels for my fish knives.

It does the job but it’s not the best. I needed one so I kept it but I’d do a little more searching. I think there can be a better option out there. Not disappointed but not impressed.

Incredible steel. I have the fine/polish cube, multicut, sapphire/polish cube and oval polish. This is easily the most effective steel for sharp edge maintenance. Highly recommend. The cut and the oval shape specifically are why I bought this. And frankly wish I did earlier.

Works great, quality product.
