I've been trying to find an answer to this everywhere but I haven't came across it. When I use my steel it always tends to bend my edge from one side to the other rather than realign it. It doesn't matter if I've been using my knife for a while or just finished on the stone with my knife. What am I doing wrong here?

You are probably using to steep an angle and maybe to much pressure. There are some good posts on steeling in the knife blog on this site.

I just looked at Ergo's website and although I like the handle angles I would say that there product is not designed for professionals or really any one serious about knives. Th only 10" knife they offer is the Guy Fieri slicer. This just reinforces my belief that knife sets are a waste of money they include knives that you really don't need and not the large knives you should have.
