Interesting! I have a steel, but don't use it. I do like the paper
trick. I used it when I was first learning how to sharpen my knives
because it lets you know if you missed a spot. Lately, I just pass my
knife over Home Depot's least expensive sharpening stone a couple of
times. It lives on the window ledge, so it's always handy.... but I
like do that ceramic steel. I don't need a good slicing edge very
often, but sometimes I want one.
