Winzbacher

A 39 cm (15.4 in) steel and a bowl set that names its alloy

A honing steel and a bowl set.

The steel

39 cm (15.4 in) overall in hardened special steel, with a non-slip soft-touch handle and a finger guard. The guard is the feature: honing is a repetitive motion towards your own hand, and a guard is what stops one bad stroke.

The bowls

Five in named 304 stainless, with lids and grater attachments. Naming the alloy is more precise than “stainless steel”; 304 is the standard food-grade grade and the correct material for a mixing bowl.

Where it is thin

The steel’s hardness is not published, and the bowl set’s capacities are not either. Both figures exist in competing listings in the same hubs.

The one to look at first

The 39 cm (15.4 in) steel, for the guard and the length — a long steel is easier to use correctly than a short one.
