What it does is push a rolled edge back into line. Every time you cut, the very fine edge of the blade folds over microscopically, and the knife feels blunt long before it actually is. A few passes on a steel straightens it and the sharpness comes back.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThis is a fine cut bar, which means shallow closely spaced grooves that true the edge without chewing at it. At 30cm this is the length for professional kitchens running 27cm and 30cm gyutos, where a shorter steel runs out of bar before the blade runs out of edge.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFine cut grooves true the edge without removing unnecessary metal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuits hard Japanese steels where a coarse steel is too aggressive\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e300mm working length for long professional blades\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExtends the time between whetstone sharpenings\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade in Japan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TOJIRO","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55084204917035,"sku":"TF-847=OP","price":294.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0816\/6087\/0955\/files\/1087-600x600.jpg?v=1787835294","url":"https:\/\/www.essentialutensil.au\/products\/tojiro-sharpening-bar-fine-cut-30cm","provider":"The Essential Utensil","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
