Review: Well built and may out live most of the people on desertcart. 5+ years and still in perfect shape. - Great solid honing steel. I've been using this for 5 years now and it's in excellent shape still. No rusts and still works. Unlike some of my Shun knives that have rusted over the years (not sure if it's user error or just a bad set, but a few of my expensive Shun knives are a bit rusted). Anyways back to the honing steel: get it if you want a high qualify honing steel that may out live you.
Review: Good Sharpin Steel - Needed a steel for my knife set and this on closely matched the handles of the knife set. The steel itself looks to be of good quality, but I thought the steel was very fine reminiscent of ceramic sharping stick. The is set up to fine tune your knife so don't let the little women abuse the knife to the point you can't restore just with the steel.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What makes Shun worth the upgrade?**
A: Shun knives are handcrafted in Japan with premium steel such as VG-MAX. Extra sharp out of the box, they stay sharp longer and deliver unmatched precision. Shun knives are more than a tool, they’re a lifelong cooking experience.

**Q: How should I care for my Shun knife?**
A: Always hand wash with mild soap and dry immediately. Never put your Shun knife in the dishwasher. Use a soft wood cutting board like Hinoki to protect your knife edge when cutting. Do not use Shun for chopping through bone or frozen ingredients.

**Q: What is the proper cutting technique for a Shun?**
A: Use a locomotive motion when cutting - move the blade forward or back instead of pressing straight down. This lets the blade do the work, reduces fatigue, and helps keep your Shun in top condition.

**Q: How often should I sharpen my knife?**
A: Notice your Shun losing its edge? Hone weekly to re-align the blade. If honing no longer works, send it in for free sharpening or follow our online tutorials to hone and sharpen at home.

**Q: What’s the correct way to pronounce Shun?**
A: Say 'Shoon' (rhymes with moon). Shun is the Japanese concept of enjoying food at its peak. We honor this tradition by crafting fine cutlery that’s always at the peak of its perfection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect tool for the Shun knives
*by R***9 on December 12, 2023*

This pricey steel is designed for the Shun Chef's knives. A little disk at the top has an angled flat spot that helps you stroke the knife down at the correct unique angle required by the Shun blade. Using this steel will keep the Shun knives cutting edges straight, and therefore sharp, for a very long time. I will probably never need to have the knife sharpened as I am not a pro who cooks a lot daily. PS: Shun knives are fantastic!
