Victorinox 7-inch Regular Cut Honing Steel

The Victorinox 7-inch regular cut steel is built for poultry processors and is ideal for boning knives and other small knives. The compact rod fits in a belt holder or a tackle box, so the edge can be touched up on the line or in the field.

Poultry and game work dulls a boning knife quickly, and a few strokes on this steel between birds keep it cutting cleanly. It suits knives up to about 5 inches, such as the Fibrox Pro 5-inch Curved Semi-Stiff Boning Knife.

Hold the steel in the free hand, set the heel of the knife at the top and draw it down the rod, alternating sides. Keep the strokes light and short.

Wipe it clean between birds and dry it at the end of the shift.

For longer knives, see the Victorinox 10-inch Regular Cut Honing Steel. Our Honing Rod Guide explains honing in detail.

    Victorinox Honing and Sharpening Steels

    Regular and fine cuts realign an edge during daily work; polishing steels burnish a fine edge; diamond and helical steels remove metal and are for setting or restoring an edge. Choose a steel about 2 inches longer than your longest knife. Our Honing Rod Guide explains each cut, and our Kitchen Knife Shapes guide covers the knives they maintain.

    How to Hone

    Hold the steel upright with the tip on a towel or board. Set the heel of the knife against the top of the rod at roughly 15 to 25 degrees and draw the blade down and toward you so the whole edge passes along the rod. Alternate sides for a few light strokes each; pressure does not help.


    Care

    • Wipe the rod clean after use and dry it before storing.
    • Hang it by its ring or store it in a block slot so the surface does not knock against other tools.
