118H Ceramic Honing Rod - Professional Knife Sharpener Steel

I'm very pleased with this honing rod. It has a nice, solid feel to it, and the handle is comfortable to grasp and hold. The rubber end tip is effective to keep the rod firmly planted in place when it's used vertically, and can be removed should you want to use it in a more freehand fashion. The 20 degree angles on the handle are helpful. One quibble is that I would have liked to see a 15 degree guide in addition to the 20 degree ones, but it's not a significant issue. This works great to hone an already sharpened blade to an excellent edge. I use it before each knife use and it has significantly extended the time before the blade needs a full sharpening. It's quick, easy and effective -- the three criteria I look for the most when it comes to keeping a blade at peak sharpness. Very good value for the price.

Works very well on all my kitchen knives. Easy to use and works quickly.

Keeps my knives sharp and easy to use

I have never used a honing rod to sharpen knives but this one I absolutely love it so far the handle puts me on the right angle sharpening

Before buying this ceramic rod from Sharpal, I had bought their diamond rod. While the diamond rod is fine, this ceramic rod is much more better at sharpening. I recommend buying this ceramic rod and not the diamond rod. The difference between the two is outstanding.

Far superior to the steel rod that came with the set. You have a real feel of getting something done when you use it. Easy to clean.

Keep my Japanese knife nice and sharp. Good material, good value for the price

The knife honing stick worked fine for a few months. I then noticed that the knives were not getting sharp as before. Upon close inspection, I noticed that the pores of the sharpening rod were clogging up. I used abrasive pads to remove the upper layers that were clogged and the sharpening rod works relatively well. However, it now clogs more often and has to be cleaned more often. I don't think I will purchase this again. The rod is too soft for honing hardened knives.

nikel , tranchant rasoir.

Bell’oggetto ! Non serve per affilare ma per lucidare il filo della lama .

This has a very fine grained ceramic , very hard which cuts my kitchen knives with consumate ease, leaving them razor sharp. I actually bought this to hone my serated bread knife as it has a round section . It is great for all.

This is way better than the old age steel and I would trust nothing else with my 1000$ jap knife
