F. Dick 10-inch Round Regular Cut Steel with Non-Slip Handle

A non-slip handle matters when the hands are wet or greasy, and this 10-inch round F. Dick steel pairs one with a regular cut for everyday honing. It suits meat cutters and cooks who hone throughout a shift.

F. Dick cuts the grooves deep and even, so the rod hones consistently and keeps its bite with use. The handle is sealed to the rod, which keeps it suitable for processing plants and busy kitchens with strict cleaning routines. Ten inches fits a standard knife block and suits boning, utility and chef’s knives up to about 8 inches.

Keep it within reach of the cutting board so a few strokes between tasks become part of the routine.

For longer knives, the 12-inch and 14-inch versions add reach. An oval rod with the same handle is the 12-inch oval regular cut steel with non-slip handle. For a finer finish, see the FineCut 10-inch oval steel.

    Which Cut Do You Need?

    • Regular cut: pronounced grooves remove a little metal and leave a slightly toothy edge; F. Dick calls it first aid for knives that are no longer very sharp.
    • Fine cut: removes less metal and mainly straightens a rolled edge for a smoother result.
    • Sapphire and ultra-fine cut: the Dickoron cuts, made for frequent, gentle honing of an edge that is already sharp.
    • Polished: no abrasion; straightens and polishes, and can follow a coarser steel.

    Tips for Best Results

    Hold the knife at a steady angle anywhere from 15 to 25 degrees and draw the full edge, heel to tip, along the rod with light pressure. Alternate sides for a few strokes each. Our honing steel guide walks through the technique.


    Care

    Wipe the rod with a damp cloth after use to remove fine metal particles, then dry the rod and handle. Hang it by its ring or store it where the rod cannot knock against other tools, which can dent the cut.
