You do not need to use sandpaper on a Granton 10 in. Packing House Steel. The rod comes completely smooth, which is preferred by many butchers, especially for commercial knives like Victorinox Fibrox Pro, F. Dick ErgoGrip, and Dexter Sani-Safe. While some butchers apply sandpaper to add texture, it’s not necessary—there are already textured steels available, such as the F. Dick 10 inch fine cut. Most commonly, packinghouse steels are left smooth, as this works very well for maintaining the edge on commercial cutlery used in professional settings.
