FISCHER Butcher's Diamond Sharpening Steel with hard chromium coating 27cm

In the field of knife sharpeners, FISCHER is undoubtedly one of the best brands of the market.  FISCHER is a French brand with more than 150 years of experience manufacturing sharpening steel and other kitchen products of extraordinary quality.  FISCHER products are highly appreciated by professional and home cooks from all around the world, and the Fischer diamond sharpening steel 27cm is not an exception.

This sharpening steel has an oval rod with diamond coating. The advantage of using a diamond sharpening steel over a regular one is that the sharpening results are far more effective and durable. In addition, the rod is also covered with hard chromium that provides greater strength and a smoother cut.

The black handle of this sharpening steel is ergonomically designed to allow professional butchers to have a comfortable and firm grip while sharpening their knives. It is made of a high-quality synthetic material of great durability that is resistant to strokes.

If you are not a professional cook, using a sharpening steel might seem like a challenging task. However, it is very easy to learn with a bit a practice. You have to hold the steel vertically in one hand while resting the end of the rod on a secure surface. Then, you have to angle the blade of the knife and pass the edge of the blade along the steel in continuous “sweeping” repetitions. The picture below might give you a better idea of how to do it.
