Shun 2-in-1 Honing Steel and Whetstone with Stand

Designed specifically to sharpen and hone Shun cutlery, this three-piece sharpening set includes a honing steel, a two-sided whetstone and a bamboo stand to ensure your Shun blade is at the perfect angle for sharpening.

• Use the honing steel for weekly maintenance; use the whetstone to restore the blade's edge when sharpening becomes necessary.
• Dual-sided ceramic whetstone has a different coarseness on each side: 1000 grit and 6000 grit.
• The 1000-grit side is perfect for duller blades and setting the edge.
• The 6000-grit is very fine for refreshing or finishing a razor-sharp edge.
• The stabilizing bamboo base maintains the perfect blade position for sharpening Shun’s 16-degree blade angle.
• The honing steel’s rod is forged from corrosion-resistant high-carbon steel.
• The durable, ergonomically shaped PakkaWood handle on the honing steel resists moisture and provides a comfortable grip.
• Designed by Shun, a Japanese company that has produced fine cutlery for more than 90 years.

Set includes:

• Dual-sided ceramic whetstone.
• Bamboo stand for whetstone.
• Honing Steel.

• 14" x 3 3/4" x 5 1/4".
• Honing steel: 9" rod; 4 1/2" handle.
• Made in China.
  

Use

• Use with straight-edged knives only; not for use with serrated blades.
• Steel length should measure at least as long as the knife being honed.
• Line up the knife with the guide and make a few light strokes on each side of the blade.
• Depending on how often you use your knives, you may wish to hone once a week.
• A paste will accumulate on the whetstone during sharpening. Leave it in place while sharpening.

Care

• Remove metal filings from the steel with a damp cloth.
• Clean whetstone under running water and allow to air dry.
