At the Hunters Pantry, we suggest that a honing steel is a must-have for any cook. While it's important to remember that honing steels don't sharpen knives, they do realign the blade so it can remain sharp for as long as possible before needing a whetstone (or to see our friendly knife sharpening service - enquire in-store!). 

This Shun honing steel has a combination of different honing surfaces: a smooth side for weekly honing, and a micro-ribbed side for monthly. The built in angle guide also makes it easy to realign your blade with precision.
