Keep your cutting tools sharp, effective, and rust-free with the Burgon & Ball Sharpening Steel, a robust, magnetised steel designed specifically for maintaining medium-sized blades like topiary hedge shears, lawn shears, and edging tools.
At 19cm in length, this sharpening steel gives you a longer, more controlled stroke for consistent blade maintenance, helping restore a clean edge quickly and efficiently. Whether you're a frequent gardener or seasonal trimmer, keeping your shears sharp means less effort, cleaner cuts, and better results all around.
The real game-changer is its magnetised core, which attracts and holds onto metal filings as you sharpen. This simple but clever feature prevents the filings from clinging to your blades, where they could cause rust or dull the edge, and instead keeps them on the steel, where they can be easily wiped away with a cloth.
A handy hanging ring lets you keep the sharpener close to hand in your shed or on your belt, and the chunky size makes it comfortable to grip and easy to control. It’s a must-have maintenance tool for anyone who relies on precision-cutting garden tools.
Ideal for keeping your Burgon & Ball hedge shears, lawn shears, and other medium-bladed tools working at their best.
