Amazon.com Review
Despite the name, sharpening steels don't actually sharpen knives--unless they're diamond steels. Instead, they perform the vital task of realigning, or resetting, edges, which bend when contacting a cutting surface or other hard object. Because this tool is made of harder-than-steel ceramic it performs better and quicker than most steels. Using the sharpener often--before each time a knife is employed is ideal--prevents a blade from becoming dull and prolongs intervals between professional sharpenings, or the need of a whetstone or other true sharpening device. Like Global's signature knife handles, the ceramic sharpener's handle is molded for comfort and dimpled for a safe grip. The rule is that a realigning tool should be at least as long as the knife blade being drawn across it, and this sharpener's 9-1/2-inch rod is long enough for most household knives. --Fred Brack

Summary: Fantastic 2007-12-16
Comment: It's not cheap, however, if you steel your knives with this before most uses they will be sharper than when they came from the factory. Really!

Summary: Wonderful honing rod for any knife, global or otherwise 2004-01-08
Comment: As a professional chef, I have used quite a number of steels, and I must say that this is the best 'steel' I have used. The ceramic does a wonderful job of honing my knives to a perfect edge and I like that you can buy replacement ceramic in case you drop it or break it somehow. I would definately buy again.
