Our take on the Shun Premier TDM0790

The Shun Premier honing steel is a 12.5-inch rod in the same walnut-brown PakkaWood and Damascus-look styling as the Premier knife line. It is a realigning tool, not a sharpener: regular light strokes keep a fine edge straight between professional sharpenings. It suits owners of Shun and other Japanese knives who want a matched honing rod; cooks who expect it to restore a dull edge should look at a whetstone or a powered sharpener instead.

Best forOwners of Shun Premier knives who want a matching rodHome cooks maintaining Japanese knives between sharpeningsBuyers who prefer a classic steel over a pull-through sharpener
Pros
  • Matches the Premier line's PakkaWood handle and finish
  • Long 12.5-inch rod gives room for full-length strokes
  • Fine grit realigns an edge without removing much steel
  • Light at 7.2 oz, so it is easy to control
Cons
  • Hones only; it will not sharpen a dull or damaged edge
  • Hand wash only, and the wood handle needs drying
  • Premium styling adds cost over a plain steel
  • Rod surface can be aggressive if used with heavy pressure

Questions and answers

Does this sharpen a dull knife?
No. It is a honing steel that straightens an edge. A dull or chipped blade needs a whetstone or a sharpener.
Is it compatible with any knife?
It works with most Western and Japanese knives, but it is styled for the Shun Premier line and pairs best with those.
How often should I use it?
A few light strokes before or after each use keeps an edge aligned. Heavy pressure removes more steel than needed.
Can I put it in the dishwasher?
No. Hand wash and dry it immediately, since the wood handle should not soak.
What is in the box?
The honing steel itself. No sheath or stand is included.
