Tools and Hardware Reviews of Diamond Machining Technology CS2 12-Inch Ceramic Steel
Customer Review: Ceramic Knife Sharpener/manual
Summary: 5 Stars
Diamond Machining Technology 12-Inch Diamond Steel Shapening Rod, Fine GritThis knife sharpener is the BEST.Although I have other sharpeners and steels for my knives. I use this one the most. The grit and length are perfect. I would prefer that the company include a usage/instruction note to future puchasers(proper angle). Cleaning--is easy,a little ajax or comet cleanser and water keep the ceramic rod from getting clogged. The sharpener also has a larger safety guard covering the handle than other sharpening steels or ceramic sharpeners.Customer Review: Perfect "steel"
Summary: 5 Stars
The purpose off a "steel" is to straighten out the tiny roll the blade edge develops as you use a sharp knife. This roll is what makes a knife start to feel dull. I've found that using this rod every time before I use the knife makes a terrific difference in how sharp the knife feels and how long the edge lasts.
This is the perfect tool to keep that super edge on your fine knives. A couple of very light (just enough presure to keep contact) strokes per side, at a shade more than the angle use to sharpen the blade, and that edge is straight and ready to glide through your food.
Customer Review: Very nice product.
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a bit finer then the extra fine rod. It is fact a step between the X fine and the XX fine coming in a 7 microns or 2200 grit. It's ceramic not diamond. OK, all that being said. This is a great tool to keep a fine edge on an already sharp knife. It is NOT a sharpener. It is a honing tool. If you know how to hone a blade, use this. It's a great tool and very well made.Customer Review: Solid and Commercial Grade
Summary: 5 Stars
This is not a flimsy kitchen store tool. It is very solid, commercial grade kitchen tool. Besides fitting my hand very well, I appreciate the unbreakable ceramic material the steel is made of. I have ordered several styles of DMT steels and have been very happy with the quality product that they provide.
Customer Review: Very Fragile
Summary: 2 Stars
This steel does a nice job sharpening knives but it's incredibly fragile. I was using this steel in a commercial kitchen and after about a week it had nicks in the ceramic down the entire rod and even some deep cuts in the steel that catch your knife blade. I had to return it.
