At 10.5" this honing rod polishes your knives smooth. It features a medium surface of approximately 2000 grit. The black ceramic is a new ceramic that is much durable than traditional white ceramic. The surface will realign edges quickly and work better on Japanese cutlery which tend to be harder. These rods are meant to hone a knives edge. Use it regularly at home to maintain a fine edge. Does not replace sharpening.

Best I've used
Having both the "grooved" and smooth sections truly improves the final result and adds little time. My only complaint is that it's too thick to fit in my knife block. So, while my old steel stays in the block, it will, well, stay in the block.

good quality
Easy and quick to use, my sushi knife, with just a few taps, will restore your edges to like-new condition, quality guaranteed.
