Yes, the F Dick steels are superb. I can (literally) shave with my knives after using F Dick steel.

GET A 12" steel. It makes sharpening 10" knives MUCH easier.

This one is great: F. Dick 12 in. Multiron Oval Steel

so is this one: F. Dick 12 in. Round Regular Cut Sharpening Rod with Wooden Handle

For the last 15 years I have purchased from knifemerchant.com. Their service, prices and selection is the best.

I generally recommend a regular cut steel, NOT a fine cut steel.
