Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Global G-38 - 10 inch, 26cm Diamond Sharpening Steel
Customer Review: Worth the $
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to admit that I initially grimaced at the idea of spending over $100 for a knife sharpener. But after splurging on several Global knives I didn't want to skimp on the sharpener. Two or three swipes on the diamond sharpening steel and the knife is as sharp as a razor. Yes, even Global knives will loose a little edge with normal use. This is a must have for keeping them honed.Customer Review: You won't want this scratching your Global knife after using a waterstone
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this product based on the other customer recommendations. It really is an amazing steel, but if you already have a very fine Japanese waterstone (mine is 6000 grit) that gives your Global knives a mirror-like razor-blade edge (MUCH sharper than they come from the factory), you're not going to like the way the diamonds on this steel scratch that finish. Also, you lose some sharpness. After using a 6000-grit waterstone I can literally and easily shave with my Global knives, but not so after "honing" them afterwards with this sharpening steel.
Otherwise, it works wonders on my other non-Global knives...
