FISCHER Butcher's Sharpening Steel 30cm with red bi-material handle

Fischer is a brand with more than 150 years of experience manufacturing kitchen tools. The company is based in Thiers, France, but the popularity of the brand is spread throughout the whole world.  Among all its kitchen tools, the sharpening steel is undeniably one of the products that made this brand reach their current high reputation throughout the world.

The Fischer Butcher’s Sharpening Steel 30cm is the perfect tool for restoring the razor sharp edge of all your steel kitchen knives. The rod has a length of 30 centimeters, and it has fine cut that enables a better and faster sharpening process. Moreover, the rod is also covered with hard chromium that provides greater strength and a smoother cut.

One of the main features of this sharpening steel is its bi-material handle. It is made of an elastomer part which provides the handle with a non-slip surface. The other material used in the handle is a very resistant plastic in red colour that ensures strength and durability.

This sharpening steel has been designed for the use of professional butchers. Therefore, it was manufactured while taking into account and respecting the HACCP regulations of hygiene and quality. This means that the tool is perfectly safe for food preparation.

Despite being a professional sharpening steel, this tool can also be useful for home and hobby cooks. If you are one of them, then you might be interested in knowing the right way to use this tool. 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 illustrates you the process.
