Review: ... decide to make a change because it took a great deal of time to sharpen my knife set and ... - I had been using an electric sharpener (Chef'sChoice 310) for the past 10 or 15 years and decide to make a change because it took a great deal of time to sharpen my knife set and I was never fully satisfied with the sharpness or longevity of the resulting edge. I chose to buy the DMT 12" fine and extra-fine sharpening steels as well as the DMT 12" ceramic steel sharpening rod. Overall I am very happy with the purchase and am fully satisfied with the results of using this set of sharpening steels. The amount of time I am spending to keep my knives sharp has been reduced, the knives are now sharper than they ever were with my electric sharpener and the knives hold their edge longer than they ever did as well. The first time I used the set, I used all three sharpening steels and spent about four or five minutes per knife to clean up the edges of small nicks and put a great edge on all my knives. Given the quality and longevity of the knives edges, I now only need to hone them with the ceramic steel once every week or two and am done in less than one minute per knife. I would highly recommend this set to anyone who’s interested in keeping their knives very sharp and are willing to spend a few minutes doing so. One word of caution that needs to be said, the coating on the ceramic steel is somewhat fragile and a great deal of care should be taken when using it. The first time I used it, I put a long nick (about 1” long) where the ceramic coating was removed and the aluminum rod in the core was exposed. I knew about this susceptibility based upon others comments here and used caution when first using however clearly not enough. I was very upset with myself for damaging it and now use even more care when using it. I also now take care to avoid the damaged area of the ceramic steel rod. All that said, it still works great and it’s helped me to keep my knives sharper for a great length of time with less work and effort.
Review: Wow - This is an excellent product. Over the years I've had an assortment of honing steels but never one to sharpen. I use a Wicked Edge for that and a ceramic rod for honing. As we have an assortment of Japanese and German knives, I was looking for something to sharpen the German knives without setting up the Wicked Edge. This rod is superb. It can put a razor edge on a typical steel knife with virtually no effort. Read the instructions, be gentle and let the rod do the work. I'm getting just shot of 3 years out of the product before purchasing another one. So far I'm on number 3 after beginning to purchase in June 2013. I'm sharpening an average of 1 knife per day. So, about 1,000 sharpenings per steel before I replace. For those complaining about a limited life: Yes, friction based tools wear. Tools that wear have a limited life. Tools that sharpen hard steel wear quicker than tools that file fingernails. Solution for you: Use plastic knives.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sharpening steel - nice long size
*by J***K on January 6, 2013*

After spending quality time honing my knives on a DMT sharpening stone on the weekends, this sharpening steel (the same grit as the fine side of my stone) keeps my knives in top shape. Between this and my straightening steel, my blades maintain their edge much better, which means less work honing in the future. This steel comes with a nice red rubber tip, allowing the steel to be held nose-down onto the counter without a slip risk (important when taking blades to levels of sharpness that threaten reality itself). Whether used in the air or nose-down, the steel works very well. Initial use will have a bit more texture/gritty feeling when running a blade down the surface, but this goes away quickly as the industrial diamond surface becomes slightly used and yet none of the sharpening power is reduced. After utilizing this steel for many months, I am considering purchasing an even finer grit as well. I have been very impressed with the reliability and results of using DMT products.
