The Mundial Butcher's Sharpening Steel is a 300 mm honing steel with a medium cut. Run your knives along it before and during service to straighten the edge and keep them cutting cleanly between sharpenings.
The long 300 mm length suits butchers and chefs using long blades, giving room for a full stroke from heel to tip. A medium cut gives a good balance between realigning the edge and taking off only a little metal.

What is the difference between honing and sharpening?
Honing on a steel straightens the fine edge that rolls over during use. Sharpening grinds a new edge. Hone often and sharpen only when honing stops working.
How do I use a steel?
Hold the steel upright with the tip on a board, place the heel of the knife against it at about 15 to 20 degrees, and draw the blade down and across so the whole edge passes the steel. Do the same on the other side and repeat a few times.
Why choose a 300 mm steel?
The steel should be at least as long as your longest blade. 300 mm covers long butcher's, slicing and cook's knives.
How do I clean it?
Wipe it with a damp cloth to remove metal dust, wash by hand if needed and dry before storing.
Will it work on serrated knives?
No. Steels suit straight-edge knives. Serrated knives need a tapered rod or professional sharpening.
