Customer Reviews of The Ultimate Edge Model 5N Companion Five Inch Narrow Diamond Sharpening Steel
Customer Rating:  Summary: Excellent Sharpening Device Comment: I have used these for years in the kitchen and also for elk and deer hunting. The sharpener is small enough that you can carry it in the field when hunting and it also stores easily in the kitchen. I use only high quality knives and this sharpener keeps them razor sharp. I would recommend this to anyone who knows how to use a sharpening steel. The diamond works faster and better than any regular steel sharpener. Customer Rating: Summary: This Meat Cutter Loves It!!! Comment: I cut meat for our local grocery store and know the importance of having a really sharp knife. I was told about the Diamond sharpening steel by a coworker that had gotten his at "Kiss The Cook" he paid $30 plus for his. Being on a tight budget right now due to rising gas prices I wasn't able to go and buy the one he was telling me about so I searched amazon. I found this sharpener/steel and decided to try it. This item arrived today and immediately got out my work knives. The were super sharp in no time and it didn't take much effort on my part at all. My arms will not get as sore now that I have the ability to keep my knives sharp. This sharpener is highly recommended. Customer Rating:  Summary: Grampa would've liked it, you will too! Comment: Let's face it, few of us today have the time or patience to sit on the steps of the porch honing away on an old 'Arkansas' stone until the blade of our knife is sharp enough to split a hair as grampa used to do when he was a young man. Still, anyone who owns a knife other than a ginsu blade will inevitably need to hone his edge. ... if you have a blade you care about, you are going to want a sharpener that can put a good edge on your knife and which requires a minimum of technical acuity and elbow grease to do so. Thus you will want to own this knife sharpener (well, actually, the larger ones made by this company are a better choice, I am sure, but this is the model I own so this is the one I'll review). Sharpening a knife well is not rocket science ..., but until these diamond encrusted sharpening tools came along it was a time consuming one. This is because the necessary fineness of the honing surface on the washetaw stone used to sharpen a steel blade required hundreds of strokes to create a fine edge. Using a more abrasive hone such as carborundum either damages the knife blade by deeply scoring it, or creates an edge that just won't stay sharp. These Diamond Steel sharpeners, on the other hand, do an excellent job of both supplying the aggressive bite necessary to create a sharp edge quickly and being fine enough so that, with just a little practice, one can create an edge in a few strokes that will last quite a long time. For die hard stone users, the trick is always to get the knife's edge at a precise and consistent angle with each sharpening stroke. This technique can not be mastered by most casual knife sharpeners The makers of the Diamond Sharpening Steel developed a soft oval shape that is very, very forgiving of a novice's foibles and allows even a casual user, who has not mastered the technique, to put a passable edge on a blade and with just a little practice he'll soon be able to put a wicked sharp hone on an edge. Even though I have not used the larger versions of this tool I recommend them because this one is a little short for the long comfortable strokes one wishes to make when honing a blade longer than six inches.

Choosing Appliance -> Stainless steel bowls These are the best all purpose bowls for a multitude of applications. Choose a wide range of sizes (be sure to get a large bowl for whipping egg whites and whipped cream). In general, the heavier the bowl, the higher quality. Choosing Appliance -> Spatulas Buy a sturdy stainless spatula for general uses and a Teflon spatula for your non-stick pan. In addition, buy a silicon baking spatula for scraping bowls. Silicon is an amazing substance which is heat resistant up to 550 degrees. The Ultimate Edge Model 5N Companion Five Inch Narrow Diamond Sharpening Steel
