Worked great for the first 3-4 weeks. After about one month of moderate use, sharpener developed knicks, and became incredibly dull except for certain corners/edges of sharpener. Overall 2/5 and disappointed with pricier option of sharpeners available on Webstaurantstore.com.

Works well until finish wears down. Purchased about 3 years ago and now a majority of the diamond finish has worn smooth making sharpening more difficult. We are not a high volume business, so I expect someone who daily uses will have even more challenges. Will probably select a different sharpener next time.

The Dexter-Russell diamond knife sharpening honing steels is a great addition to any kitchen. Used by lightly placing the near edge of the blade against the base of the steel, then sliding the blade away from yourself along the steel while moving it down and up.

This tool is sufficient for a skilled chef to sharpen his knives. Unfortunately, we are lacking such skills and have since hired a service. To each their own.

The 12 inch diamond knife sharpening steel works great. Easy to use and puts a nice edge on all cutlery. Nice price too seeing as it is a Dexter-Russell.

This diamond steel is great to have in your knife roll. I use mine ever day. You need to hone your knife regularly to keep it sharp.

This sharpener is a great extra for our kitchen. It works great for touching up a blade to keep it razor sharp. The plastic nonslip handle provides an easy handle to hold.

This diamond steel has been invaluable for keeping our knives sharp under heavy use. The only thing that has been inconvenient is the lack of a hook at the end of the handle so we can't hang it with the rest of our steels.
