Great products
I used it first time for cheese with nachos. I first had to warm cheese up on stove then pour in pot because it uses a sterno which is to be expected if you\'re in a time crunch. I love it.
I love them. Great feel when picking food items up.

I love them. One problem: I had a hard time reading. The size is too small.
Light and sharpens fast. Great for skinning knives!
Lightweight steel that sharpens quickly. I take it with me when working outside processing poultry and sheep, since I can quickly refresh my edge with minimal downtime. And since it\'s affordable, I am less concerned about dropping and damaging it.
Winco also makes a round, solid core version of this steel, but note it is quite different. It has a shorter honing surface, and is coarser.

Specs:
Material: Diamond coated, steel plate, plastic core.
Overall length: 17 inch
Sharpening surface length: 11 15/16 inch
Coarseness: Medium
Functionality: 5/5
+Medium grit. Specs are not listed, but I would approximate about #600
+surface is consistent. Sometimes with diamond steels, there are coarse imperfections that interfere with sharpening. But this item is consistent throughout.
+metal loop on handle for storage
+suitable for knives with edges up to 10\"
+-lightweight due to plastic core, but does not feel as sturdy as a solid core steel
Fit and Finish: 5/5
+no dents, scratches, imperfections, ... Ready to use out of box.
-packaging is a little tricky to open. Patiently cut around it to avoid having to clean plastic shavings from the steel later.
Value: 5/5
+Very affordable
Good for restoring really dull edges!
First of all, Before purchasing, make sure to look at this Winco\'s Oval Diamond steel below. Same price, but it will be a better fit for most situations due to its finer grit and ability to accommodate larger knives.

Now on to the review.
This is a sturdy steel that works well for restoring very dull edges. It\'s affordable, but well-made - the surface is consistent. There are no dings or bumps, which may damage the edge.
The texture is coarser than I would recommend for regular maintenance of kitchen knives. It\'s really just for restoring knives that are very dull. The surface has very fine horizontal grooves underneath the diamond powder coat which has the effect of increasing the coarseness.
After using this diamond steel, I would suggest following up with a regular honing steel to polish out the micro-serrations.

I bought 2 pair as gifts and both are very pleased with them. Just what I expected and delivered sooner than expected. I\'ll recommend this product to my friends and family
The Winco Food Storage and Lid are great quality items. We purchased them last year & use them daily. They are holding up well, so much so that I ordered more this year in a different size.
Great gloves for the price. We go through a lot of gloves handing out samples so they are perfect for us.
I love this product. It is so nice to be able to cover the half sheet pans. They are nice quality and work great.
