Sharpening steels and honing steels are often confused with one another, however there are many important differences, and both are vital in maintaining the sharpness of your blades.

 

The Function Of A Diamond Sharpening Steel

The Orient sharpening steel removes steel along the blade to restore the V-shape of the edge and is therefore used to sharpen knives that have become blunt after frequent use. If you were to use a sharpening steel more frequently than needed, you would find there would be little left on your blade after time.

 

The Function of A Honing Steel

A honing steel is used to correct a bent blade and ensure the blade edge is straight. You can use the Orient honing steel each time before you use your knife, which will help maintain the sharpness of your blade edge over a longer period.


    When To Sharpen

    If you’re trying to decide whether your knife needs to be sharpened, an onion or tomato can tell you. A sufficiently sharp knife will cut cleanly through the the skin. If your knife is dull, you’ll damage the structure as you attempt to cut it.
