Steeling, using the typical corrugated metal steels sold in kitchen shops, is NOT ideal for sharpening quality kitchen knives. The corrugations destroy any edge and leave a rough, saw-like edge.
All knife manufacturers recommend sharpening knives on waterstones of between 600 to 6,000 grit.
For touch-ups in the kitchen, a ceramic rod, used like a steel, will re align and touch up the edge.
Throw the corrugated steel in the trash.
