For those who prefer a steeled edge, the #470 is the world’s first precision steeling device that features super hardened miniature steels and highly precise angle guides to consistently create optimally steeled yet exceedingly sharp knives. In fact, it delivers an edge that is far superior to conventionally steeled knives. And the great news is that anybody can use it with guaranteed success! The non-abrasive mini steels on the #470 develop uniform ultra sharp microscopic serrations along the entire edge of the blade. The steeling angles are set at approximately 23 degrees and the knife edge will not round off during steeling as they do when using conventional steels where the angle of attack is dependent on the expertise of the user. The #470 maintains the original sharp edge geometry and creates uniform serrations that work together for a better cutting edge. Because steeling on the #470 is so precise, your knife edge will require steeling or reshaping less frequently.
