Review on ๐Ÿ”ช Top-rated 12 Inch Professional Carbon Steel Black Knife Sharpening Steel by Josie Stevens

Revainrating 2 out of 5

There's nothing PROFESSIONAL about it

Firstly the name was a bit misleading. This is by no means a PROFESSIONAL sharpener. As you can see from my photos the rod has rusted badly in less than 2 months of use. I've been using it daily since I received it, but I also brush every oil almost every day. This is a classic "YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR" case. Here's my honest take on the matter - rust aside, it's not too bad for home use. when new it was actually very good for the money. I would recommend it to those who use it several times a month. Also, this is a COURSES staff, so be careful not to over-sharpen or damage the knife blade. Which I did and ended up having to sand with a wet rock to bring it back to life. If you decide to buy one, remember to clean and oil it well after EVERY use.

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • No paint needed
