Ikon Sharpening Steel 26 cm – Round

Wüsthof Ikon Sharpening Steel 26 cm – with round cross-section

The Wüsthof Ikon Sharpening Steel is made for exceptional honing of your knives. Even high-quality knives gradually dull due to use: to compensate, a honing steel should be used regularly. A few strokes of both sides of the knife over the honing steel will help you to maintain the sharpness of a good blade.

We recommend using a Diamond Steel or a Ceramic Steel to restore the sharpness of particularly blunt knives.

The distinctive double bolster design not only provides perfect balance but also adds a modern aesthetic touch that sets Ikon apart.

Every Ikon knife is precision-forged from a single piece of high-carbon stainless steel and features  PEtec edge technology, resulting in exceptional sharpness and edge retention.
